Surgical repair of partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection shunting from left atrium to innominate vein
نویسندگان
چکیده
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) causes a left-to-right shunt from the anomalous pulmonary vein (PV) to a systemic vein. We report an uncommon adult case of PAPVC, in which the left upper PV drained into both the innominate vein and the left atrium (LA), demonstrating retrograde shunting from the LA to the innominate vein. The anomaly was surgically repaired.

A 6-year-old boy presented with dual drainage of left upper pulmonary vein, with connection to innominate vein inaddition to its normal connection to the left atrium. Despite relief of aortic stenosis at the age of 3 years, significant left to right shunt persisted. The dual drainage allowed successful percutaneous closure of the levoatriocardinal vein without obstruction to the pulmonary venou...

Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is an anomaly in which the pulmonary veins are directly connected to one of the systemic veins or drain into the right atrium. Management of pulmonary hypertension after the total correction of this congenital cardiac anomaly is very important. Unligation of the vertical vein in the supracardiac type of this anomaly can be a draining pathway f...

A 51-year-old man with no cardiovascular symptoms was referred for cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) for further investigation of alterations observed on previous exams. CMRI revealed biventricular dilatation and paradoxical septal motion compatible with volume overload. Balanced steady-state free precession sequences in axial planes showed an anomalous vein oriented vertically and late...

A 4-day-old boy underwent an urgent operation for mixed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection with the left upper pulmonary vein draining into the innominate vein and the other pulmonary veins draining into the coronary sinus. The left upper pulmonary vein was left uncorrected at that time. After periodical follow-up for 5 years, repair of the uncorrected anomalous pulmonary vein was perf...
