The trunk gives rise to the coronary arteries, systemic arteries, and at least one pulmonary artery. Truncus arteriosus is a rare congenital cardiac disease, and even rarer is the absence of ventricular septal defect.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Case summary<\/jats:title><jats:p>We report a case of a 2-day-old infant who presented with cyanosis and a cardiac murmur.
