ABSTRACT
A 14-year-old boy underwent palliative total cavopulmonary connection [modified Fontan operation] for a single ventricle and pulmonary atresia. At postoperative outpatient clinic follow-up visits progressive cyanosis was noticed. Cardiac catheterization and angiography revealed a hepatic vein draining to the left atrium accounting for the arterial desaturation. The communication was successfully closed by transcatheter method using the Amplatzer duct occluder
