- W2081111401 abstract "Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) is a very rare congenital anomaly that was first described by Winslow in 1789. Pathologic studies suggest that this anomaly occurs in 0.7% of the population,1Hughes C. Rumore P. Anomalous pulmonary veins.Arch Pathol. 1944; 37: 364-366Google Scholar, 2Healey Jr., J.E. An anatomic survey of anomalous pulmonary veins: their clinical significance.J Thorac Surg. 1952; 23: 433-444PubMed Google Scholar which is a higher rate than reported in clinical series. Most cases are associated with a sinus venosus defect. PAPVC from the right lung is twice as common as PAPVC from the left lung. Most commonly, the anomalous connection is to the right superior vena cava (SVC) or the right atrium. Isolated PAPVC with intact atrial septum is even less common and usually involves drainage of the right upper pulmonary vein into the SVC.3Geva T. Van Praagh S. Anomalies of the pulmonary veins.in: Allen H.D. Driscoll D.J. Shaddy R.E. Feltes T.F. Moss and Adams' heart diseases in infants, children, and adolescents. 7th ed. Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia2008: 761-792Google Scholar In this report, we present a case in which preoperative echocardiography suggested a superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect with anomalous drainage of the right upper lobe to the SVC. Intraoperatively, no atrial septal defect was found. An anomalous vessel was attached to the SVC at the level of multiple small anomalous right upper pulmonary veins to the SVC and was connecting the SVC to the roof of the left atrium. Surgical correction was established by disconnection of the right PAPVC and the anomalous vessel from the SVC, with reconstitution of the SVC by direct anastomosis. A term female neonate was noted to have cyanosis at rest. Echocardiography revealed situs solitus with normal ventricular looping and normally related great vessels. The SVC was thought to be draining to the left atrium through a superior sinus venosus septal defect. The right upper pulmonary vein could not be clearly delineated, although the remainder of the pulmonary veins had normal connections to the left atrium. The SVC was mildly dilated. The patient was followed up as an outpatient and had no cardiac symptoms other than mild cyanosis. She showed normal growth and development. Because of the persistent hypoxia, with peripheral arterial saturations of approximately 90%, the decision for an operative procedure was made when the patient was 1 year old. After partial thymectomy and opening of the pericardium, an anomalous pulmonary venous connection of the right upper lobe to the posterolateral aspect of the SVC was noted. There were multiple small veins from the right upper lobe to the SVC. In addition, there was an anomalous vessel the same size as the SVC at the level of the anomalous pulmonary veins, which connected the SVC to the roof of the left atrium (Figures 1, A, and 2).Figure 2A, Transthoracic echocardiographic subcostal view in 2 dimensions and color showing the anomalous connection of the superior vena cava (SVC) to the left atrium (LA). This was initially interpreted a high superior sinus venosus type septal defect. Note the flow acceleration (denoted by times sign) in the distal superior vena cava, which is probably secondary to anomalous pulmonary venous drainage.

RA, Right atrium.View Large Image Figure ViewerDownload Hi-res image Download (PPT) After heparinization, cardiopulmonary bypass was established with the arterial cannula in the aorta and 2 venous cannulas, 1 in the inferior vena cava and 1 in the left innominate vein. After cardioplegic arrest was established at 28°C, a clamp was placed across the SVC below the level of the azygos vein. The azygos vein was large and was left patent. The right atrium was opened with a standard short, oblique incision. The SVC was confirmed to be normally connected to the right atrium. There was no atrial septal defect except for a patent foramen ovale. The SVC was transected above and below the anomalous pulmonary veins and the anomalous SVC to left atrium vessel. The proximal and distal open ends of the SVC above and below the pulmonary vein orifices were closed by direct suturing with 6/0 Prolene suture (Ethicon, Inc, Somerville, NJ), thus allowing the anomalous veins to drain to the left atrium through the anomalous vessel from the SVC to the left atrium. The SVC was reconstituted by direct anastomosis. The patent foramen ovale was closed by direct suture (Figure 1, B). Weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass was accomplished without problems. Postoperative echocardiography showed no shunt at the SVC or the atrial level, good biventricular function, and no obstruction of pulmonary venous return. The patient was transferred to the cardiac intensive care unit and was discharged home on the 4th postoperative day. This is the second case report in the English-language literature to describe isolated PAPVC with concomitant anomalous connection of the SVC to the left atrium.4Beck C. Wessel A. Yelbuz T.M. Bertram H. Images in cardiovascular medicine. Unusual case of anomalous pulmonary venous return with left atrial to systemic venous shunt.Circulation. 2006; 113 (e840-1)Crossref Scopus (3) Google Scholar The surgical repair consisted of a direct complete repair. The unobstructed PAPVC to the SVC could be directed from the SVC to the left atrium through the auxiliary connection. The remainder of the procedure consisted of a direct SVC to right atrial connection without the need for a removal of the tip of the atrial appendage. Preoperative diagnosis of isolated PAPVR may be difficult because of lung overlying the pulmonary veins and the SVC. Where there is particular doubt, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may be considered for supplementary diagnosis. Although standard evaluation with T1-weighted spin echo images can delineate the exact anatomy, cine-MRI with flow-sensitive sequences may reveal information about the exact size, course, and drainage of the PAPVR. Furthermore, 3-dimensional imaging can be created with magnetic resonance angiography.3Geva T. Van Praagh S. Anomalies of the pulmonary veins.in: Allen H.D. Driscoll D.J. Shaddy R.E. Feltes T.F. Moss and Adams' heart diseases in infants, children, and adolescents. 7th ed. Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia2008: 761-792Google Scholar If the echocardiographic images are easy to obtain and there is no urgent need, however, MRI is usually not preferred in the younger patient population because of the risks associated with sedation and intubation. Cardiac catheterization is rarely necessary. In conclusion, even if an accurate preoperative evaluation with echocardiography, MRI, or both has been performed, careful understanding of the entire cardiac anatomy should be achieved intraoperatively in patients with PAPVC to allow application of an appropriate surgical repair." @default.
