Connection of the pulmonary veins to the left atrium, characterized by the flow of the upper pulmonary veins towards the superior vena cava and to the right atrium was identified1.

Once the interatrial septum was resected, the pulmonary vein blood flow was redirected to the left atrium through a large bovine pericardial patch (Figure 3) in order
