Resection of interatrial septum, opening of the left atrium along the right pulmonary veins (Figure 2A), and suture of the bovine pericardium below the mitral valve, by isolating

The opening of the left atrium was anterior to the right pulmonary veins and the atrial withdrawal was performed by using a specific transthoracic retractor (Estech, inc.)

In this study we assessed the surgical results of the correction of the partial anomalous connection of pulmonary veins in superior vena cava by using the technique of enlargement

D: right side of the patient; [E: left side of the patient, LA (AE): left atrium; MIP: maximum intensity projection; PV (VP): pulmonary veins, Ao: aorta, VPC: common pulmonary

The side-to-side anastomosis between the superior vena cava and the pulmonary artery with the exclusion of the right atrium for total cavopulmonary connection was described by.. us

[15] study, the inclusion of a control group permitted the establishing of the isolation of the posterior wall of the left atrium, encompassing the ostia of the pulmonary

We report on the rare case of partial anomalous return of four pulmonary veins in the right atrium and superior vena cava with intact interatrial septum in a five-year-old

1) Isolation of pulmonary veins - Pulmonary vein isolation was performed by involving the right and left pulmonary veins in pairs epicardially (passing one of the
