Overview

Patients with pulmonary stenosis and closed PAD usually appear cyanotic after birth. Conversely, patients with VSD and high pulmonary blood flow without stenotic pulmonary arteries present with signs of overt heart failure without cyanosis.

Physical Examination

Patients with pulmonary stenosis and closed PAD usually appear cyanotic after birth. Physical examination may be remarkable for:[1]


Patients with high pulmonary blood flow without stenotic pulmonary arteries and with VSD are notcyanotic at birth. Physical examination may be remarkable for signs of overt heart failure include:

Diagnostic Criteria

The diagnosis of tricuspid atresia is made when at least of the following three diagnostic criteria are met in echocardiography:[2]

  • Absent of color flow doppler in[[ tricuspid valve] region
