Abstract

Persistent left superior vena cava is an unusual congenital heart disease (about 0.5% in healthy populations). Although it has no hemodynamic insult to the heart, it may accompany other congenital heart pathologies. it may also complicate central venous access. Implantation of a pacemeker ör insertion of a pulmonary artery catheter may be very difficult. We represent a case with mitral stenosis and persistent left superior vena cava which has been found coincidentally during right heart catheterization.

Özet

Persistan sol superior vena kava nadir görülen doğumsal bir kalp anomalisidir (sağlıklı toplumda % 0.5). Kalbe ek bir hemodinamik yük getirmemekle birlikte diğer konjenital kalp patolojilerine eşlik edebilmektedir. Ayrıca santral venöz girişi komplike hale getirebilmektedir. Pacemaker implantasyonu ya da pulmoner arter kateterizasyonu oldukça çok güç olabilmektedir. Bu yazıda sağ kalp kateterizasyonu esnasında persistan sol superior vena kava saptanan mitral darlıklı hastamız sunulmaktadır.
