Successful Surgical Management of Incidentally Diagnosed Scimitar Syndrome With Anomalous Connection of the Left Hepatic Vein to Coronary Sinus and Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava
Scimitar syndrome is a rare congenital heart pathology that presents at birth, and it is a type of partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR). In one in three people with scimitar syndrome, the right pulmonary vein is shaped like a scimitar (a Turkish sword) and can be easily visualized on ra...

description | Scimitar syndrome is a rare congenital heart pathology that presents at birth, and it is a type of partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR). In one in three people with scimitar syndrome, the right pulmonary vein is shaped like a scimitar (a Turkish sword) and can be easily visualized on radiographic imaging. This syndrome is not a simple and benign disease, and associated cardiac anomalies play a role in long-term outcomes, and the presence of pulmonary hypertension contributes to high mortality. The present case is the rarest of rare entities, scimitar syndrome, anomalous vascular connections between the left hepatic vein and coronary sinus, and persistent left superior vena cava in a single patient with no such case report published before. |
