Absent pulmonary valve is a rare congenital heart defect where the pulmonary valve is either absent or rudimentary. It is usually associated with tetralogy of Fallot although it has been reported with other lesions. We present a rare case of absent pulmonary valve associated with transposition of great arteries and non-routable ventricular septal defect that was surgically managed by aortic root translocation.
