Abstract

Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) with an absent right superior vena cava (RSVC) is an extremely rare congenital anomalie in normal atrial situs. Isolated cases are diagnosed incidentally during catheterization. In patients with PLSVC, due to frequent drainage of upper extremity, head and neck veins into coronary sinus, patients with enlarged coronary sinus should be suspected to have absence of the RVCS. In this report, we presented a 7-year-old girl who was diagnosed perimembranous VSD (ventricular septal defect), apparently enlarged coronary sinus, PLSVC with transthoracic echocardiography, and incidentally was recognized absence of RSVC during percutaneouse VSD closure. Consequently, we wanted to draw attention to echocardiographic and angiocardiographic findings of this rare venous anomaly.

Transkateter VSD Kapama Sırasında Tesadüfen Saptanan Sağ Süperiyor Vena Kavası Olmayan Pediatrik Olgu

Abstract

Persistan sol vena kava süperiyor ile birlikte sağ vena kava süperiyorun olmaması, normai atriyal situs varlığında son derece nadir bir doğumsal anomalidir. İzole vakalar, kateterizasyon sırasında tesadüfen saptanır. Baş, boyun ve üst extremitenin venöz drenajı sol persistan vena kava aracılığıyla sıklıkla koroner sinüse olduğundan dolayı, genişlemiş koroner sinüsü olan hastalarda vena kava superiyor yokluğundan şüphelenilmelidir. Bu yazıda, transtorasik ekokardiyografiyle VSD, belirgin geniş koroner sinus ve sol persistan vena kava süperiyor tanısı konan ve transkateter kapama sırasında tesadüfen sağ vena kava superiyorunun olmadığı saptanan 7 yaşında kız hasta sunuldu. Böylece, bu nadir venöz anomalinin ekokardiyografik ve anjiyokardiyografik bulgularına dikkat çekilmek istendi.
