Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC) is a congenital heart defect in which the pulmonary veins do not connect normally to the left atrium. Instead, oxygen-rich blood returns to the right side of the heart through an abnormal pathway. Surgical repair aims to establish a normal connection between the pulmonary veins and left atrium while closing associated abnormal connections that allow blood mixing.
Choosing Istanbul Oncology Hospital for TAPVC gives patients access to experienced pediatric cardiac surgeons, advanced cardiovascular imaging, neonatal intensive care facilities, and structured postoperative management. Established in 2008, the JCI accredited hospital in Istanbul, Turkey it has adequate bed capacity and provides specialised congenital and cardiothoracic surgical services.
TAPVC repair is performed under general anaesthesia and typically requires open-heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. The surgeon establishes a direct connection between the pulmonary venous confluence and the left atrium and closes the abnormal atrial communication as appropriate. Following surgery, the infant is closely monitored in a neonatal or pediatric cardiac intensive care unit for oxygenation, heart function, rhythm disturbances, pulmonary pressure, and potential postoperative complications.
Vinmec Central Park International Hospital is a trusted healthcare provider for TAPVC, offering complex congenital heart surgery supported by experienced pediatric cardiac surgeons, specialized operating facilities, and multidisciplinary intensive care. Established in 2015, the JCI accredited hospital is situated in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam and has 178 beds.
TAPVC can cause significant mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood and may lead to low oxygen levels, rapid breathing, poor feeding, or heart failure, particularly when pulmonary venous drainage is severely obstructed.

Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC) is a congenital heart defect in which the pulmonary veins, responsible for carrying oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart, are not connected to the left atrium in the way that they should. Instead, they are connected to other veins or the right atrium, leading to abnormal blood flow. TAPVC repair corrects this abnormal connection and redirects the pulmonary veins to the left atrium, restoring normal blood flow and improving oxygenation.
TAPVC repair is performed exclusively to surgically correct and restore normal blood circulation that happens due to a total anomalous pulmonary venous connection. During the procedure, the surgeon creates a connection to redirect the oxygenated blood to its proper route. This improves oxygen levels in the body and helps with signs like breathlessness, chest pain, etc.
The TAPVC repair is typically performed in infants, and the recovery process involves closely monitoring the child in the cardiac intensive care unit (ICU). The recovery may take weeks to months based on the child’s overall health state. A child may need respiratory support and medication to stabilize their condition. After discharge, the doctor will schedule follow-up visits to check for proper recovery and growth.
