Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) is a rare congenital disorder that involves drainage of one or more pulmonary vein to the right atrium or systemic cir­culation. We report multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) findings of two cases of PAPVR with the drainage of left superior pulmonary vein into left brachiocephalic vein. MDCTA is a non-invasive, useful method for detection of this situation. Multiplanar refor­matted images enables course of anomalous vein, con­nection with the systemic circulation, and accompanying pulmonary and cardiac anomalies.

Parsiyel anormal pulmoner venöz dönüş anomalisinin çok kesitli bilgisayarlı tomografi anjiografi bulguları: İki olgunun sunumu

Öz

Parsiyel anormal pulmoner venöz dönüş (PAPVD) nadir bir konjenital anomali olup bir ya da birden çok pulmoner venin sağ atriyuma ya da sistemik dolaşıma katıldığı bir durumdur. Bu makalede sol süperior pulmoner veni sol brakiosefalik vene açılan iki PAPVD olgusunun çok kesitli bilgisayarlı tomografi anjiografi (ÇKBTA) bulguları sunul­du. ÇKBTA bu durumu ortaya koymada faydalı, girişimsel olmayan bir incelemedir. Multiplanar reformat görüntüler anormal venin seyrini, sistemik dolaşımla bağlantısını ve eşlik eden pulmoner ve kardiyak anomalileri göstermede yardımcıdır.
