  • Title: The Scimitar syndrome: CT findings in partial anomalous pulmonary venous return.
    Author: Olson MA, Becker GJ.
    Journal: Radiology; 1986 Apr; 159(1):25-6. PubMed ID: 3952313.
    Abstract:
    An anomalous pulmonary vein draining into the subdiaphragmatic inferior vena cava was initially demonstrated on computed tomographic (CT) scans. The diagnosis of scimitar syndrome was confirmed with digital subtraction angiography. In retrospect, the anomalous vein and dextroposition of the heart were shown on chest radiographs.
