Abstract
Protein-losing enteropathy is a reported complication of several cardiac diseases. Recently we encountered a patient with protein-losing enteropathy acquired as a late surgical complication of the Mustard procedure. An obstructed superior vena caval conduit was repaired surgically and the enteropathy was resolved.
