Anomalous pulmonary venous connection (or anomalous pulmonary venous drainage or anomalous pulmonary venous return [1]) is a congenital heart defect of the pulmonary veins. It can be a total anomalous pulmonary venous connection, wherein all four pulmonary veins are incorrectly positioned, or a partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection ...
Scimitar syndrome, or congenital pulmonary venolobar syndrome, is a rare congenital heart defect characterized by anomalous venous return from the right lung (to the systemic venous drainage, rather than directly to the left atrium). [1] This anomalous pulmonary venous return can be either partial (PAPVR
Testing revealed that she had a rare heart defect known as PAPVR (partial anomalous pulmonary venous return) in which some of the blood vessels of the lungs attach to the wrong place in the heart ...
5 Words: Total anomalous pulmonary venous return; A mainstem intubation with an endotracheal tube can lead to right-to-left shunting. [citation needed] This occurs when the tip of the endotracheal tube is placed beyond the carina. In this way only one lung is oxygenated and oxygen-poor blood from the non-ventilated lung dilutes the oxygen level ...
Pulmonary vein stenosis can be congenital or acquired. [6]A rare abnormality that accounts for 0.4% of congenital heart diseases, congenital pulmonary vein stenosis results from the common right or left pulmonary vein failing to integrate into the left atrium (LA) during the vessel's embryonic development, obliterating the pulmonary veins partially or completely on one or both sides.
In the pediatric population, this anomaly may be associated with major congenital cardiac lesions such as tetralogy of Fallot, double outlet right ventricle, coarctation of the aorta, partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection, persistent left superior vena cava with unroofed coronary sinus, ventricular septal defect, atrioventricular septal ...
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) Some constellations of multiple defects are commonly found together. [citation needed] Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) Pentalogy of Cantrell; Shone's syndrome/ Shone's complex / Shone's anomaly
partially or totally anomalous pulmonary venous return; Tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia (pseudotruncus arteriosus) is a severe variant [47] in which there is complete obstruction (atresia) of the right ventricular outflow tract, causing an absence of the pulmonary trunk during embryonic development.
