Obstructed partial anomalous pulmonary venous connections (APVC) are rare but may be associated with severe pulmonary hypertension (PHTN) and warrant urgent relief. There are a number of case reports of successful catheter intervention for obstructed total APVC. We present the first reported case of catheter intervention to relieve obstructed, left sided PAPVC in a neonate with Turner syndrome. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
