neonate with berry syndrome [AP window with interrupted aortic arch]

ABSTRACT

Full term neonate patient, about 3 kg weighs, admitted in child hospital because of Respiratory distress syndrome [RDS]. Investigation by echocardiography reveled large aorto-pulmonary window [AP window] with sever coarctation of aorta. Findings at the time of operation were large AP window and interrupted aortic arch with patent ductus arteriosus [Berry syndrome]. The anomalies corrected at the same operation. Unfortunately sever acidosis; brain and pulmonary edema, not responding to medical therapy contribute to patient's death
