Multiple anomalies were observed: wide anterior thoracic defect with extrathoracic four-chamber heart, rounded apex of the heart, high ventricular septal defect, the major blood vessels transposition, narrow pulmonary artery, and pericardium covering only ventricles (Figures 1 and 2). Apgar scale (Figure 3, Supporting Information Video 1 in Supplementary Material available online at http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2016/5097059). At birth, the infant had hypotonia, weak cry, and generalized facial cyanosis.
