Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) has an incidence of about 5.9-7.1 per 1,00,000 live births. Sutureless repair is
a safe and effective procedure to manage TAPVR. The sutureless technique with creation of neoatrium leads to less pulmonary
venous obstruction postoperatively and less reoperation rates as well. This article provides an overview of sutureless repair
for TAPVR.
