Zusammenfassung:ABSTRACT Tricuspid atresia is a congenital cardiac anomaly that is most commonly associated with normally related great vessels and less commonly with transposition of the great vessels. When tricuspid atresia is associated with dextro‐transposition of the great vessels, there is a high incidence of coarctation of the aorta. This report documents the rare case of a newborn male with tricuspid atresia and normally related great arteries with both pulmonary stenosis and coarctation of the aorta.
