Persistent left superior vena cava is the most common thoracic venous abnormality seen in heart surgery. Previous case reports describe the surgical technique for reimplantation of PLSVC during transplantation but do not describe midterm patency. We describe our technique for PLSVC anastomosis and postoperative management with midterm data, both intraprocedural details and postoperative direct oral anticoagulation therapy.
永存左上腔静脉是心脏手术中最常见的胸部静脉异常。既往病例报告描述了移植过程中永存左上腔静脉再植入的手术技术,但未描述中期通畅情况。我们描述了我们的永存左上腔静脉吻合技术及术后管理,并提供了中期数据,包括术中细节和术后直接口服抗凝治疗。
