Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection is a rare congenital anomaly that has four anatomical subtypes. In the supracardiac type, the common pulmonary vein confluence usually drains into the left innominate vein via a vertical vein; however, it may drain into the superior vena cava. Herein, we present a successful surgical repair of a rare type of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in which the common pulmonary vein confluence was draining directly into the superior vena cava without a vertical vein.
完全性肺静脉异位连接是一种罕见的先天性畸形，具有四种解剖亚型。心上型中，通常共同肺静脉汇流经垂直静脉汇入左无名静脉；然而，也可能汇入上腔静脉。本文报告了一例罕见类型的完全性肺静脉异位连接的成功手术修复，共同肺静脉汇流直接汇入上腔静脉而无垂直静脉。
