Overview

Chest Xray may show the classical egg-on-side pattern

Chest X Ray

  • Generally, the superior mediastinum may be narrow due to the anterior-posterior relationship of the great vessels.
  • Initially, cardiac size is normal, but soon enlarges with the cardiac apex shifted to the left and inferiorly, producing the typically ovale-shaped or egg-on-side pattern.
  • If a VSD is present, there will be an increase of the pulmonar vascular margins.
