- Abstract
Tracheobronchial anomalies are rare congenital malformations that are typically managed conservatively. Several reports have documented their increased incidence in patients with congenital heart disease. However, none of these reports have detailed the incidence found among patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Airway obstruction, whether by extrinsic compression or an undiagnosed tracheobronchial anomaly, in the perioperative period may have significant morbidity in this tenuous population.
