Abstract
|
|
|
Four cases of double superior vena cava were noted among 70 congenital cardiac malformation patients who were operated on in this departrment during the past five years. The first case was associated with ventricular septal defect, the second with tetralogy of Fallot, the third with Levocardia accompanied by complete transposition of the great vessels and pulmonary stenosis, and the last with patent ductus arteriosus.
The persistence of the left superoir vena cava was confirmed by cardiac catheterization, vena-cavogram, and direct vision during operation.
During this period 23 patent ductus arteriosus, 28 tetralogy of Fallot, and 5 cases of ventricular septal defect were operated on in the department. Each case had right sided superior vena cava in addition to the left one, i.e. double superior venae cavae.
