    Abstract:
    From 5 cases of partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage of the left lung into the innominate vein, it has been thought of interest to situate this type of venous anomaly among the partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage classification. It is revealed in 2 different ways. In adults, this malformation sets the problem of the diagnosis of an abnormal chest Xray, without symptom. In children, this vascular abnormality is discovered during the exploration of a congenital cardiopathy which causes the main symptoms. Embryological data are reviewed and statistics of frequency which lead to show that this type of partial anomalous venous drainage is often misunderstood, particularly with regard to anomalous venous drainage of the right lung.
