The present series describes a group of adults with left-to-right shunts including partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) and/or an atrial septal defect (ASD) evaluated with ECG-gated 128-slice multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). PAPVR is defined as a left-to-right shunt where one or more, but not all, pulmonary veins drain into a systemic vein or the right atrium. PAPVR involving the right upper pulmonary vein can be associated with a sinus venosus ASD. The presence, course, number of anomalous veins and associated cardiovascular defects can be reliably observed by 128-slice MDCT angiography.
本系列描述了一组患有左向右分流的成年人，包括部分性肺静脉异位引流（PAPVR）和/或房间隔缺损（ASD），这些患者接受了心电图门控128层多排螺旋计算机断层扫描（MDCT）评估。PAPVR定义为一种左向右分流，其中一条或多条（但不是全部）肺静脉引流至体静脉或右心房。累及右上肺静脉的PAPVR可能与静脉窦型ASD有关。128层MDCT血管造影能够可靠地观察到异常静脉的存在、走行、数量以及相关的心血管缺陷。
