Title: Partially unroofed coronary sinus syndrome with persistent left superior vena cava, absent right superior vena cava and right-sided pericardial defect. Author: Yilmaz AT, Arslan M, Demirkiliç U, Kuralay E, Ozal E, Tatar H, Oztürk OY. Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 1996; 10(11):1027-9. PubMed ID: 8971519. Abstract: Partially unroofed coronary sinus syndrome with persistent left superior vena cava is a rare congenital anomaly. It frequently produces a right-to-left shunt. We report a case in which a large left-to-right shunt was present, because of the obstruction to left ventricular inflow as a result of the dilated coronary sinus. This abnormality was associated with absent right superior vena cava and a partial pericardial defect on the right side.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
