Persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) is the most common congenital venous abnormality. With the increasing number of children who survive into adulthood with congenital heart malformations, the recognition of persistent LSVC among patients with advanced heart failure is likely to rise. We present two cases of orthotopic heart transplantation in the setting of LSVC successfully managed with biatrial and bicaval techniques.
永存左上腔静脉(LSVC)是最常见的先天性静脉异常。随着越来越多患有先天性心脏畸形的儿童能够存活至成年,在晚期心力衰竭患者中识别永存 LSVC 的可能性将会增加。我们介绍了两例 LSVC 患者成功接受原位心脏移植的病例,采用了双心房和双腔静脉技术进行管理。
