Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return in the Time of SARS-CoV-2-Case Report.

The management of children with complex and life-threatening heart malformations became a clinical conundrum during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. The pathophysiological features of the new coronavirus infection have raised major dilemmas regarding the postoperative evolution of an infected patient, and the epidemiological limitations have tightened the criteria for selecting cases. We present the case of a newborn diagnosed with total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) who underwent surgical repair of the defect with favorable outcome, despite a prior diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection. We discuss the medical and surgical management of TAPVR, highlighting possible management difficulties brought by the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.
