Key result
The Senning procedure was used to surgically treat an infant with left atrial isomerism and complex venous connections causing cyanosis from a parallel circulation.
Case Report (n=1)
The Senning procedure was utilized to treat an infant with left atrial isomerism and physiological parallel circulation.
May inform rare isomerism cases with parallel circulation; leaves open need for outcome series before broader adoption.
We present the case of an infant with left atrial isomerism with complex pulmonary and systemic venous connections that resulted in physiological parallel circulation in the setting of ventriculoarterial concordance who was surgically treated using the Senning procedure. This case highlights a rare cause for cyanosis due to poor mixing from a parallel circulation and an issue with nomenclature. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)

Das et al. (2019) conducted a case report in Left atrial isomerism with complex pulmonary and systemic venous connections (n=1). Senning procedure was evaluated. The Senning procedure was used to surgically treat an infant with left atrial isomerism and complex venous connections causing cyanosis from a parallel circulation.
