Light-guided surgery to repair coronary sinus orifice atresia with left superior vena cava.

چکیده
An 8-month-old male with coronary sinus orifice atresia, left superior vena cava, and single ventricle underwent light-guided coronary sinus unroofing concomitant with bidirectional cavopulmonary anastomosis to circumvent coronary sinus hypertension. During surgery, a 2.25 Fr angioscopic catheter was inserted into the coronary sinus via the left superior vena cava. The coronary sinus, lit by the illumination obtained from the catheter, was readily located from the left atrial interior, and unroofed. Light-guided coronary sinus unroofing is an easy, safe, and quick technique for the creation of unobstructed coronary sinus drainage in patients with coronary sinus orifice atresia and left superior vena cava.

We present an unusual case of an intracardiac Eustachian valve cyst observed concurrently with atresia of the coronary sinus ostium, a persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) and a bicuspid aortic valve. There have been several echocardiographic reports of Eustachian valve cysts; however, there is no report of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) findings related to a Eustachian valve cys...

Results CSOA was preoperatively diagnosed in 2 of 6 patients by late phase coronary angiography findings, intraoperatively in 3, and postoperatively in 1. Coronary venous drainage was through the left superior vena cava (LSVC) to innominate vein in 3, through Thevesian veins to right atrium in 2, and both in 1. 3 patients needed surgical treatment without any mortalities. The first patient with...
متن کاملA persistent left superior vena cava.
Persistent left superior vena cava is the most common form of anomalous venous drainage involving the superior vena cava, and represents persistence of the left horn of the embryonic sinus venosus, which normally involutes during normal development to become the coronary sinus. Almost always, a persistent left superior vena cava enters the right atrium through the orifice of an enlarged coronar...

The coronary sinus has lately assumed an important role in the cardiologic clinic once it has been widely used in invasive procedures of the heart. Commonly, it is used during the electrodes implants for the epimiocardic monitoring of the cardiac rhythm, through a biventricular pace maker. These invasive procedures are not possible in hearts with an atresic coronary sinus ostium. In the presenc...
متن کاملCoronary sinus atrial septal defect without persistent left superior vena cava: Three-dimensional imaging of a rare defect
Coronary sinus defects refer to interatrial communications that lie out of the confines of the atrial septum and leads from left to right shunt through the ostium of the coronary sinus. When associated with persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC), mild systemic desaturation may occur depending on the extent of unroofing of the coronary sinus. Isolated defects without PLSVC are rare. Three-di...
