Only after ligation of vertical vein, echocardiography could detect a perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD). Following VSD closure, pulmonary artery pressure declined and patient improved. %K pulmonary hypertension %K Sildenafil %K total anomalous pulmonary venous connection %K vertican vein %U http://www.pvrireview.org/article.asp?issn=0974-6013;year=2010;volume=2;issue=3;spage=126;epage=127;aulast=Kumar
