Pulmonary Venoatrial Connection Using a Ringed Tube Graft to Repair Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return.

Left-sided partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (left pulmonary veins to left vertical vein) was repaired in a 70-year-old patient by ligation of the vertical vein and connection of the pulmonary veins to the left atrial appendage using a ringed polytetrafluoroethylene tube graft. The graft made the connection technically easier and facilitated a torque-free and tension-free anastomosis that was "stented" open by the rings.
