Dr Yuranga Weerakkody and Dr Frank Gaillard et al.

A number of entities can present as cyanotic congenital heart disease. These can be divided into those with increased or decreased pulmonary vascularity. They include:

increased pulmonary vascularity
- total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) (types I and II)
- transposition of the great arteries (TGA)
- truncus arteriosus (types I, II and III)
- large AVSD
- single ventricle without pulmonary stenosis
decreased pulmonary vascularity
- tetralogy of Fallot
- pentalogy of Cantrell
- many other combined and infrequent anomalies such as
  - double outlet right ventricle (DORV) with pulmonary stenosis
  - single ventricle with pulmonary stenosis
  - Ebstein anomaly with atrial septal defect
  - Uhl anomaly
