Misleading hyperoxia test.
Abstract
A 2 day old infant with infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection achieved an arterial oxygen tension greater than 250 mmHg, breathing 100% oxygen. Diagnosis of cardiac disease was delayed several weeks. The anatomical basis for this phenomenon was streaming of systemic venous return across an inferior vena cava type atrial septal defect.
