Figure 2. (A) Computed tomography shows APW type III (*) between right pulmonary artery and ascending aorta, forming the “W” shaped communication between great vessels. (B) Computed tomography shows the interrupted aortic arch (**) after left subclavian artery (LSCA), which indicated IAA type A. (C) Surgical photography shows APW type III (<) behind the ascending aorta (Ao) and anterior to right pulmonary artery (RPA). There was no communication between main pulmonary artery (MPA) and ascending aorta (Ao). Ao – ascending aorta; MPA – main pulmonary artery; RV – right ventricle.
