Abstract
|
|
|
|
Anomalous left brachiocephalic vein (ALBCV) is a rare condition of the major thoracic veins. It is usually associated with a congenital cardiac anomaly. Most reports on ALBCV are on aberrant left BCV, and there are few reports on double left BCV. Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is also a rare vascular anomaly that is caused by the failure of the left anterior cardinal vein to regress. To our knowledge, double left BCV with PLSVC has not been reported. Here, we report a case of double left BCV with PLSVC in a 72-year-old male patient with no previous cardiac abnormality.
