Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare congenital heart disease in which there is developmental absence of connection of all four pulmonary veins with the left atrium. To report a rare case and share our experience in surgery and post-operative management for supracardiac TAPVC. Patient with supracardiac TAPVC with atrial septal defect (ASD) secundum variety with rudimentary patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) underwent rechanneling of pulmonary veins to left atrium (LA) with gluteryldehye treated autologous pericardial patch closure of ASD with ligation of ascending vertical vein and ligation of rudimentary PDA.Post operatively there were no events of pulmonary hypertensive crisis, low cardiac output syndrome, right heart failure or conduction defect were observed and echocardiogram showed adequate pulmonary venous drainage with no residual shunt across the interatrial septum. Marked development in surgical results of TAPVC has been observed in recent years with declining mortality rate from 65% in early sixties to 5% in current surgical scenerio.

Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

Cor triatriatum may be associated with abnormalities of pulmonary venous anatomy. This case report describes a unique form of partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection. The patient presented at 5 weeks of age with symptoms of tachypnea and poor feeding. Echocardiography demonstrated cor triatriatum and partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage of the right upper lung. The patient underwent urgent repair of cor triatriatum. It was elected to not address the partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection at that time. The patient returned at age 19 months for elective repair of the anomalous pulmonary venous connection. There was also a large vein connecting the right lower pulmonary veins to the superior vena cava. This was repaired by dividing the superior vena cava along a vertical axis to redirect the flow of the anomalous pulmonary veins through the connecting vein to the left atrium. This report describes the anatomy and surgical approach to a unique form of anomalous pulmonary venous connection.

Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

Abstract A 28-year-old male with infra-cardiac totally anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) repaired as new-born presented in adulthood with right heart strain and very large left atrium to portal vein vessel. Residual connections from pulmonary veins to systemic circulation are believed to represent persistent ‘vertical veins’ (VV) not ligated at the time of the initial surgery. In our patient, since endovascular occlusion was not judged suitable, the anomalous vessel was surgically ligated and resected. A review of the literature failed to find such a procedure reported in an adult patient and analyzed the intra-operative ligation of VV during repair of TAPVC.

Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

AbstractIn this study, we present the case of a neonate with obstructed infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection with severe pulmonary hypertension and a patent ductus arteriosus with right-to-left shunting. The patient had an unusual finding of pandiastolic flow reversal in the upper descending thoracic aorta. He underwent emergency surgical re-routing of the pulmonary veins to the left atrium, and postoperative echocardiography showed disappearance of the descending aortic flow reversal. We hypothesise that in severely obstructed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection the left ventricular output may be extremely low, resulting in flow reversal in the descending aorta.

Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

AbstractWe report a case of totally anomalous pulmonary venous connection in which the two pulmonary veins from the left lung joined to form a common vein which then passed across the midline into a hypoplastic right lung and, after receiving small veins from the right lung, passed inferiorly, exiting the lung below the hilum as a “scimitar” vein and terminating in the inferior caval vein. A separate pulmonary vein from the right lung passed inferiorly independently and joined the “scimitar” vein before it entered the inferior caval vein. There was an associated hypoplastic left heart syndrome.

Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

Although the occurrence of bilateral superior caval veins (SCVs) is not unusual, persistence of the left SCV with atretic right SCV is extremely uncommon in the setting of normal visceroatrial arrangement. We report such a case that was also associated with anomalous pulmonary venous connection of the right pulmonary veins to the solitary left SCV.
