Abstract
We present a case of resistant to medical treatment heart failure due to significant shunting through a secundum atrial septal defect by a 3-month old infant who underwent coarctectomy due to critical coarctation of the aorta at the age of 15 days. The tachydyspnea and failure to thrive persisted despite the successful resection of the coarctation and resolved very rapidly after subsequent operative closure of the atrial septal defect.
