Impressions
Atrial septal defect

Patient History

Findings
A boot shaped configuration to the cardiac silhouette due to an upturned apex caused by RV enlargement is present. The lung fields are oligemic due to reduced vascularity from right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Impressions
Tetralogy of Fallot

Impressions
Constrictive pericarditis
