Total anomalous pulmonary vein drainage in an adult diagnosed by helical computed tomography.
A 41-year-old man visited our hospital with the complaint of palpitation by atrial flutter. He was finally diagnosed as total anomalous pulmonary vein drainage by helical computed tomography (CT). This case is very unusual due to the lack of symptoms until the age of 41. The absence of pulmonary artery stenosis, and the presence of atrial septal defect providing sufficient right to left shunt f...
متن کاملEvaluating adult cor triatriatum with total anomalous pulmonary venous connections by multidetector computed tomography angiography.
A 19-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital with dyspnea, chest pain, and shortness of breath. A chest radiograph showed mild cardiomegaly. Echocardiography revealed an extra chamber in the heart. To evaluate this abnormality, ECG-gated 16-detector-row computed tomography angiography was performed. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), showing cor triatriatum with total anomal...
متن کاملTotal Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Drainage
The spontaneous functional closure of the interatrial communication in total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (TAPVD) subsequent to surgical correction of the TAPVD in infants is reported. Three cases are documented with descriptions of clinical features, cardiac catheterization data, thermodilution curves, and angiography. This evidence suggests that it might be unnecessary in infants to cl...
متن کاملTotal Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Drainage in Infants
Thirty-seven infants with total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage have been operated upon at The Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond Street, London, with 13 survivors. Most were rapidly deteriorating when admitted. Cardiac catheterization, angiography, and operation were urgently undertaken to achieve the maximum salvage. Physical examination, plain radiography, and electrocardiography w...
متن کاملTotal anomalous pulmonary venous drainage in infancy.
Between May 1971 and December 1975, 39 infants had operations for correction of total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage. Fourteen of the 39 patients were under 1 month of age at the time of operation. Twenty-four patients had supracardiac, 7 intracardiac, and 6 infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage, and 2 had a mixed type. The overall hospital mortality was 36 per cent. There...
