Total anomalous pulmonary venous return with the circular pulmonary venous connection: outcome of common pulmonary venous agenesis.

A rare case of total anomalous pulmonary venous return, in which the right and left peripheral pulmonary veins connected circularly and there was no central part of the pulmonary vein or the common pulmonary vein, is presented. To our knowledge, total anomalous pulmonary venous return with circular pulmonary venous connection has not been reported previously in the literature. It is thought that the complex connection between peripheral pulmonary veins with the absence of the central part of the pulmonary vein as well as the common pulmonary vein results from common pulmonary venous agenesis.

Common pulmonary vein atresia: a successfully corrected case.

Common pulmonary vein atresia is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly in which there is no communication between the confluence of the pulmonary veins and the heart or the major systemic venous system. We successfully treated this disease in a 5-day-old boy by performing an anastomosis of the left atrium to the common pulmonary vein. Only one patient with this lesion who survived this procedure has been reported in the literature. Early recognition of this lesion and immediate surgical intervention are the only way to save the patient's life.
