Popis: A neonate, born after 29 weeks and 2 days gestation (weight 1015 g), was diagnosed with truncus arteriosus and interrupted aortic arch. On postnatal day 30 (1378 g), we performed bilateral pulmonary artery banding. On postnatal day 107 (3024 g), we carried out aortic arch repair and a Rastelli-type procedure. During follow-up, branch pulmonary artery and ascending aortic stenosis was observed. At 15 months, surgical angioplasty of the ascending aorta and bilateral branch pulmonary arteries was undertaken using the Lecompte maneuver.
