Awww! Not what one expects.
This is what I fear when working in the pediatrics ward. I must say my short career has been blessed with a lack of fatalities. We do have good teams here. We had a young patient with pulmonary atresia. He came to the hospital too late though.
Too many APCA´s and not enough pulmonary arteries.
