We described a case of a neonate of 13 trisomy with hypoplastic aortic arch and multiple ventricular septal defect (VSD). The patient presented symptoms of congestive heart failure due to pulmonary high flow. Because of ductal patency without prostaglandin infusion, bilateral pulmonary artery banding was performed for regulation of pulmonary high flow. Surgical intervention improved the clinical symptoms of the patient and permitted the patient to be discharged. We concluded that palliative surgery for the patient contributes to improve the quality of life both the patient and the family. This is the 1st report of bilateral pulmonary artery banding for a patient with 13 trisomy.
