Abstract

A 21-year-old male patient presented with chest pain and exertional dyspnea was investigated for an abnormal image on the postero-anterior chest radiography. On the chest radiography enhancement a nonhomogeneous opacity resembling “Turkish Sword” through right heart border was noted. Scimitar syndrome was diagnosed and partial venous return abnormality observed, which is one of the components of the syndrome, by magnetic resonance angiography. No treatment was given and informed about his disease and was asked for control revisits

Özet

Kliniğimize göğüs ağrısı ve efor dispnesi yakınmalarıyla başvuran 21 yaşında erkek hasta, postero-anterior (PA) akciğer grafisindeki anormal görünüm nedeniyle araştırıldı. Hastanın PA akciğer grafisinde sağ akciğer alt zonda kalp kenarı boyunca uzanan “Türk Palası”na benzer şekilde opasite artışı izlendi. Scimitar sendrom tanısı konan hastada sendromun komponentlerinden biri olan parsiyel pulmoner venöz dönüş anomalisi manyetik rezonans anjiyografiyle gösterildi. Herhangi bir tedavi uygulanmayan hastaya, hastalığıyla ilgili bilgi verilerek kontrollere çağrıldı.
