Congenital venous anomalies are uncommon, incidental findings encountered during adult interventional electrophysiology procedures. Femoral venous access is conventionally used during cardiac electrophysiology studies to gain access to the heart. The chance finding of an inferior vena cava anomaly may preclude the performance of these procedures from the femoral approach. We describe two cases in which we were able to successfully perform different radiofrequency catheter ablation procedures in the presence of an unusual venous anomaly, the left-sided IVC.
先天性静脉异常并不常见,是在成人介入性电生理手术过程中偶然发现的。在心脏电生理研究中,传统上使用股静脉通路来进入心脏。下腔静脉异常的偶然发现可能会妨碍从股静脉途径进行这些手术。我们描述了两例病例,在存在一种不寻常的静脉异常——左侧下腔静脉的情况下,我们成功地进行了不同的射频导管消融手术。
