Persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) with absent right superior vena cava (RSVC) is a very rare congenital anomaly. Its isolated existence is even rarer. Persistent LSVC is usually asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. We present persistent LSVC with absent RSVC in two asymptomatic patients, namely, a 52-year-old woman and 65-year-old man. The diagnosis was confirmed by cardiac computed tomography in both cases.
永存左上腔静脉(LSVC)伴右上腔静脉(RSVC)缺如是一种非常罕见的先天性异常。其单独存在更为罕见。永存LSVC通常无症状,多为偶然发现。我们报告了两例无症状患者,分别为一名52岁女性和一名65岁男性,均为永存LSVC伴RSVC缺如。两例均经心脏计算机断层扫描确诊。
