A case of Budd–Chiari syndrome combined with drainage of the inferior vena cava into the left atrium

Abnormal drainage of the inferior vena cava to the left atrium and Budd–Chiari syndrome are different congenital malformations. The combination of these 2 disorders is very rare. We report a case of a 35-year-old woman with anomalous inferior vena cava drainage into the left atrium resulting in dela...

Sumario:Abnormal drainage of the inferior vena cava to the left atrium and Budd–Chiari syndrome are different congenital malformations. The combination of these 2 disorders is very rare. We report a case of a 35-year-old woman with anomalous inferior vena cava drainage into the left atrium resulting in delayed hypoxic symptoms after interventional therapy for Budd–Chiari syndrome 17 years ago. We speculate that an abnormality of the Eustachian valve is the cause of these 2 disorders. After surgical treatment, the patient's oxygen saturation returned to normal.
