    Abstract:
    Two cases of sinus venosus atrial septal defect with partial anomalous of right upper pulmonary venous drainage into superior vena cava treated by the Vargas' procedure were reported. These patients were 5 and 6 years old. Post operative courses were uneventful, and results of postoperative hemodynamic and clinical evaluation were encouraging. The Vargas' procedure is useful method for a reconstraction of the anomaly in childhood because of use of the autologus tissues. Though long-term fate of this procedure is still uncertain. Then, we consider that a long-term follow up is necessary.
