  • Title: Modified repair of mixed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection.
    Author: Berdat PA, Pfammatter JP, Genyk I, Carrel TP.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2001 Feb; 71(2):723-5. PubMed ID: 11235745.
    Abstract:
    Mixed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare condition, accounting for only 5% of diagnosed TAPVC. It is associated with a poor prognosis unless surgically corrected by connecting the pulmonary venous sinus to the left atrium and optionally dividing the abnormal connection to the systemic venous system. We report a modified technique of complete intracardiac repair of mixed supracardiac and cardiac TAPVC in a 3-year-old child without pulmonary venous sinus-to-left atrium anastomosis.
