[A successful surgical repair for all right pulmonary venous return and intact atrial septum associated with patent left superior vena cava].

A successful repair of total right pulmonary venous return and intact atrial septum associated with patent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is reported. A 31-year-old women was admitted for evaluation of heart failure. A heart murmur had been detected since her childhood without any subjective symptoms. She was diagnosed as partial anomalous venous return of all right pulmonary vein and intact atrial septum (IAS) associated with PLSVC by cardiac catheterization. Operative findings revealed that all right pulmonary vein connected to right atrium (RA) and superior vena cava (SVC), PLSVC drained into coronary sinous (CS), therefore RA, right ventricle and CS were enlarged, but SVC was small due to PLSVC. Through large incision from RA to SVC, atrial septum was opened 30 mm in diameter. Internal conduit using pericardial patch was made in order to drain anomalous pulmonary venous blood into left atrium through the ASD. Finally, SVC and RA were reconstructed by pericardial patch for prevention of conduit obstruction. One month after operation, no stenosis of SVC and right pulmonary vein was evidenced by cardiac catheterization and all through the postoperative course, arrhythmias did not detected. She was discharged with uneventful postoperative course.
