Case report

A 27-year-old man of disadvantaged socioeconomic status went to the emergency department due to progressively worsening dyspnea on minimum exertion accompanied by lower limb edema. On admission his peripheral oxygen saturation was 80% in room air. Physical examination revealed central cyanosis, digital clubbing, watch-glass nails, and jugular venous distention. Laboratory tests showed hemoglobin 23 g/dl, hematocrit 70%, BNP 3000 pg/ml and hyperuricemia. The chest X-ray revealed cardiomegaly and the ECG documented sinus tachycardia with right axis deviation and right ventricular hypertrophy. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large common vessel (persistent truncus arteriosus) exiting both ventricles (Figure 1) and a single tricuspid valve (Figure 2) with moderate regurgitation; a subvalvular ventricular septal defect (Figure 3) was also visible. The left ventricle was severely dilated with severe global dysfunction, and there was also right ventricular dilatation with impaired global function.

Figure 1.

Three phlebotomies were performed during hospital stay. Signs of congestion were relieved by intravenous diuretics and the patient was discharged after seven days, referred to the adult congenital heart disease clinic at the reference hospital.
