  • Title: Bilateral pulmonary vein stenting through an unligated vertical vein in a postoperative case of TAPVC.
    Author: Nigam A, Trehan V, Agarwal S.
    Journal: J Card Surg; 2014 Sep; 29(5):705-8. PubMed ID: 24750402.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of obstructed supracardiac total anomalous connection (TAPVC) where the vertical vein was left open at surgery because of significant pulmonary artery hypertension. One month following surgery, the patient developed progressive pulmonary venous obstruction at the pulmonary vein-left atrial junction bilaterally. The pulmonary veins were stented using a technique where the unligated vertical vein was utilized to access left atrium.
