{Abstract}: Abernethy malformation is an extrahepatic congenital portosystemic shunt characterized by the diversion of the portal blood away from the liver through a shunt that drains directly into the inferior vena cava. We present a case of a male child with Abernethy malformation, which was initially diagnosed as cyanotic heart disease due to pulmonary arteriovenous malformation. However, after proper clinical evaluation and investigations, the diagnosis of Abernethy malformation was established. Thereafter, the patient was successfully treated with endovascular embolization. At one year follow-up, marked relief in exertional dyspnea and improvement in physical growth was achieved with no observable complications.
