Summary

We report an unusual case with discordant atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial connections. In addition to the commonly associated intracardiac anomalies ofventricular septal defect and subpulmonary tissue tags, a supravalvar ring was present above the left-sided, morphologically tricuspid valve. This case highlights the value of color flow Doppler echocardiography in making the diagnosis, particularly as the supravalvar ring was seen poorly angiographically.
