AbstractCongenital rubella syndrome (CRS) has a wide variety of severe systemic complications. Cardiovascular defects have always been a part of the rubella syndrome. Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) remains the most frequent cardiac anomaly. It may occur alone or accompany other heart defects. Pulmonary stenosis and septal defects have been noted with greater frequency since the earlier reports. The classic triad is hearing impairment, heart defect, and cataract. Here we report an infant girl with classic presentations of CRS. We discuss about her malformations and compared them with other combination of manifestations in the literature.en
