Persistent left superior caval vein draining into right atrium, but not through the coronary sinus

Persistence of the left superior caval vein is the most commonly reported thoracic venous anomaly. The vein usually drains into the right atrium through the coronary sinus, reflecting its developmental origin. We describe an unusual variant, in which the vein drained directly into the right atrium.
