Successful total correction of complete atrioventricular canal, total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage and unroofed coronary sinus in an infant

Eur J Cardiothorac Surg. 1999 Jan;15(1):95-6. doi: 10.1016/s1010-7940(98)00270-x.

Abstract

An infant with complete atrioventricular canal, total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage into the left superior vena cava and an unroofed coronary sinus successfully underwent total correction. A homograft vein was used to connect the proximal left superior vena cava to the right atrium and can be recommended when other methods of correction of unroofed coronary sinus cannot be used.
