Pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect is a rare congenital anomaly that can have poor prognostic outcomes. Although similar to the tetralogy of Fallot, it has several anatomic variations. It is a serious anomaly affecting the development of the pulmonary trunk and the membranous portion of the interventricular septum. To avoid the high morbidity and mortality associated with this condition, it must be promptly diagnosed and treated. Various surgical strategies can be employed to treat this complex anomaly. Surgical intervention is depending on the patient’s anatomy and development. This activity reviews the evaluation and treatment of pulmonary atresia with interventricular septal defect and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating and treating patients with this condition.
