Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return and atrial septal defect in adult patients detected with 128-slice multidetector computed tomography
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present series describes a group of adults with left-to-right shunts including partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) and/or an atrial septal defect (ASD) evaluated with ECG-gated 128-slice multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). PAPVR is defined as a left-to-right shunt where one or more, but not all, pulmonary veins drain into a systemic vein or the right atrium. PAPVR involving the right upper pulmonary vein can be associated with a sinus venosus ASD. The presence, course, number of anomalous veins and associated cardiovascular defects can be reliably observed by 128-slice MDCT angiography.

Interrupted inferior vena cava and partial anomalous pulmonary venous return with atrial septal defect in a 38-year-old adult: a case report
We present a woman having congenital anomalies of the inferior vena cava and partial anomalous pulmonary venous return from the right lung with atrial septal defect in a 38-year-old. Congenital anomalies of inferior vena cava are rare. They are seen more often in young males. If there are not other anomalies, they are latent for a long time. Peripheral venous thrombosis, chronic venous insuffic...

A 30-year-old male visited the Cardiology Department of our hospital with dyspnea and palpitation complaints. 2/6 systolic murmur at the pulmonary focus and fixed split S2 were detected on auscultation. Right branch bundle block was observed on electrocardiography. On transthoracic echocardiography, the right heart cavities were dilated. SVASD was detected on transesophageal echocardiography. I...
متن کاملPartial anomalous pulmonary venous connection with intact atrial septum in a child with ventricular septal defect: a case report
Partial anomalous pulmonary vein connection (PAPVC) is a rare congenital abnormal cardiac defect involving the pulmonary veins draining into the right atrium (RA) directly or indirectly by venous connection. Ninety percent of PAPVCs are accompanied by atrial septal defect (ASD). To our knowledge, there is no previous report of PAPVC with ventricular septal defect (VSD) without ASD in Korea, and...

A 51-year-old woman, presenting with increasing dyspnoea on exertion was admitted for surgery of a right sided partial anomalous pulmonary venous return. Contrast enhanced electron-beam tomography (EBT) presented a hypoplastic right lower lobe and confirmed the diagnosis of a so-called scimitar syndrome. Surgery consisted of creation of an atrial septal defect, transposition of the anomalous ve...

We present a case of 51-year-old patient after surgical closure of atrial septal defect several years ago. Enlarged right ventricle, right atrium and pulmonary hypertension were found on routine transthoracic echocardiography. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed sinus venosus atrial septal defect. Partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage was suspected. Only the computed tomography with...
