Truncus arteriosus (TA), a rare complex congenital cardiac disease in which systemic pulmonary and coronary circulations originate from a common vessel, develops due to failure of separation of the common trunk during embryonic life. In this case report, we discuss a 24-year-old patient with TA in whom a computed tomography angiography was performed. To the best of our knowledge, no case has been reported so far where an adult had combined left superior vena cava and pulmonary vein anomaly.
动脉干(TA)是一种罕见的复杂先天性心脏病,其体循环、肺循环和冠状动脉循环均起源于一根共同血管,是由于胚胎期共同动脉干分离失败所致。在本病例报告中,我们讨论了一名24岁的TA患者,该患者接受了计算机断层血管造影。据我们所知,目前尚无成人合并左上腔静脉和肺静脉异常的病例报道。
