摘      要：Background:Communication between the right pulmonary artery(RPA)and left atrium(LA)is a rare cause of central cyanosis in pediatric *** presentation:We describe a 3-year-old female patient with an oxygen saturation of 70%at *** echocardiogram indicated an abnormal color flow Doppler in the LA and she underwent standard cardiac *** angiography of pulmonary artery revealed a 7.4 mm×7.6 mm fistula between the RPA and LA and achieved successful closure using ventricular septal defect ***:The fistula between pulmonary artery and left atrium is an extremely rare but treatable congenital *** should be considered in differential diagnosis of cyanosis in children.
