Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return: Scimitar Vein
نویسندگان
چکیده
Scimitar syndrome is a rare association of congenital cardiopulmonary anomalies characterized by partial anomalous pulmonary venous return, in which an abnormal right pulmonary vein drains into the inferior vena cava. This case exemplifies the role of transesophageal echocardiography in perioperative management and surgical decision-making.

Three-dimensional image reconstruction of partial anomalous pulmonary venous return to the superior vena cava.
A case of a rare partial anomalous pulmonary venous return of the right upper lobe into the superior vena cava is reported. Multiple three-dimensional image reconstructions in association with spiral CT are used in the aim of clarifying this abnormality of pulmonary venous drainage.
متن کاملPartial anomalous pulmonary venous return showing anomalous venous return to the azygos vein.
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) is a congenital heart disease with a reported incidence of autopsied case. The location of the anomalous pulmonary venous return is usually the right atrium, superior vena cava (SVC), and sometimes the brachiocephalic vein, inferior vena cava (IVC) or coronary venous sinus. Recently we experienced a rare case of PAPVR showing anomalous right tot...

متن کاملShunt and right ventricular structural findings in isolated anomalous pulmonary venous return in Turner syndrome
Background Isolated anomalous pulmonary venous return of one pulmonary vein is relatively rare (~1/1000) and has an unclear natural history. Patients with Turner syndrome (TS) have a relatively high incidence of partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR). Our aim is to describe the natural history of unrepaired isolated anomalous pulmonary venous return and its hemodynamic consequences t...
