The yellow star marks the outer surface of the aortopulmonary window. The brachiocephalic arteries branch normally from the aortic arch which extends to the left. Image #2 shows a similar view of the same heart with the aorta opened from just above the valve, along the ascending portion and into the arch. The aortic aspect of the aortopulmonary window is marked with yellow dots. The right pulmonary artery can be seen through the aortopulmonary window. Image #3 shows the opened right ventricular outflow tract, pulmonary valve and pulmonary trunk from the same heart shown in the other panels. The pulmonary aspect of the aortopulmonary window is marked with yellow dots and lies between the valve and the bifurcation of the left pulmonary artery.
