  • Title: [Isolated left superior vena cava: value of intraoperative echocardiography for implantation of a cardiac pacemaker].
    Author: Valy Y, Christiaens L, Coisne D, Mergy J, Boyer P, Allal J, Barraine R.
    Journal: Ann Cardiol Angeiol (Paris); 1996 Jun; 45(6):325-8. PubMed ID: 8881464.
    Abstract:
    The authors report the case of a patient presenting with isolated left superior vena cava, for which intracardiac implantation of a cardiac pacemaker was facilitated by intraoperative transthoracic ultrasonographic detection of the course of the ventricular catheter. Transoesophageal ultrasonography confirmed the diagnosis and eliminated a possible associated malformation.
