One catheter tip was then placed in the right pulmonary artery while a second one was passed from the saphenous vein to the right atrium, through the atria1 defect, into the left atrium (Fig. 2). An injection of indocyanine green into the left atrium with pulmonary and brachial artery sampling revealed a left. to-right shunt with an early pulmonary artery appearance time (Fig. 3). The brachial artery curve failed to show clear-cut evidence of a break on the downstroke, which indicated that the left-to-right shunt was small (Fig. 3). Localization of the site of the left-to-right shunt is illustrated in Figures 4 and 5. Left atria1 injection revealed an early right * From the Cardiopulmonary Laboratory, Mount Sinai Hospital, Miami Beach, and the Section of Cardiology of the Department of Medicine, University of Miami School of Medicine, Coral Gables, Florida.

N2 - The diagnosis of right-to-left and left-to-right cardiac shunts in patients with complicated atrial septal defects is illustrated by indicator dilution curves following injections of indocyanine green. The lesions illustrated are Ebstein's anomaly of the tricuspid valve, total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage, tricuspid atresia and left anomalous pulmonaryvein.
