, total anomalous pulmonary venous return
-May be cyanotic or acyanotic
-four types
the pulmonary veins connect to other veins and ultimately
drain their blood into the right atrium. the right atrium
receives both deoxygenated blood from the body and
oxygenated blood from the lungs.
-presents with pulmonary edema leading to pulm. htn and
acidosis
-SNOWMAN SIGN ON XR
-fluid restrict to decrease pulm. edema; prostaglandins
