Abstract
Aortico-left ventricular tunnel is a rare congenital cardiac defect, which bypasses the aortic valve via the paravalvar connection from the aorta to the left ventricle. The authors present the case of a 14-year-old boy with aortico-left ventricular tunnel in whom the aortic orifice arose from the right aortic sinus and was closed by a pericardial patch. The diagnosis was confirmed by combined two-dimensional and real time three-dimensional echocardiogram and magnetic resonance imaging. This is the first case, in which these complex diagnostic imaging methods have been used in the pre- and postoperative management of this defect. Optimally the new transthoratic three-dimensional echocardiography would be needed to define the anatomy and functional consequences of the aortico-left ventricular tunnel and in the postoperative follow-up.

Summary
Az aorta–bal kamra tunnel egy ritka veleszületett szívfejlődési rendellenesség, az aortabillentyűt megkerülő kóros kapcsolat az aorta és a bal kamra között. Az újonnan alkalmazott transthoracalis háromdimenziós módszerrel optimalizálható az aorta–bal kamra tunnel anatómiai és hemodinamikai diagnosztikája és posztoperatív utánkövetése.
