Report on a 28-year-old female patient with classic "scimitar syndrome" (dextroposition of the heart, hypoplasia of the right lung and pulmonary veins opening into the inferior vena cava). The condition was diagnosed on the basis of chest X-ray findings in which the most striking feature was the scimitar-like course of the right pulmonary veins which gives the syndrome its name. The diagnosis was confirmed and the shunt volume determined by cardiac catheterization. Since in this case there were no additional deformities such as atrial septum defect, ventricular septum defect or patent ductus botalli and the shunt volume was small, surgical correction was not required.
一名28岁女性经典“弯刀综合征”（心脏右位、右肺发育不全及肺静脉开口于下腔静脉）患者的报告。该病症根据胸部X光检查结果确诊，其中最显著的特征是右肺静脉呈弯刀状走行，此即该综合征名称的由来。通过心导管检查确诊并测定分流血量。由于该病例不存在诸如房间隔缺损、室间隔缺损或动脉导管未闭等其他畸形，且分流血量较小，故无需手术矫正。
