Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is an uncommon life-threatening congenital heart defect that occurs mostly as an isolated lesion. It is very rarely associated with other cardiac abnormalities. In this report, we present a case of an infant who successfully underwent complete surgical repair of a rare triad of congenital heart defects, including ALCAPA, ventricular septal defect (VSD), and double aortic arch (DAA). To the best of our knowledge, this is only the second case of ALCAPA diagnosis associated with VSD and DAA that has been described in the literature.
