Prenatal diagnosis of dilated coronary sinus with persistent left superior vena cava in a fetus with trisomy 18.

TLDR
A case of dilated coronary sinus with persistent left superior vena cava diagnosed at 33 weeks in a fetus with trisomy 18 is reported and the features of this cardiac anomaly on prenatal ultrasonography are discussed.
Abstract
A case of dilated coronary sinus with persistent left superior vena cava diagnosed at 33 weeks in a fetus with trisomy 18 is reported. The features of this cardiac anomaly on prenatal ultrasonography and its association with trisomy 18 are discussed. Published in 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Prenatal diagnosis of persistent left superior vena cava and its associated congenital anomalies.

TL;DR: To evaluate the associated conditions and the outcome of persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) detected in fetal life, a large number of patients with high-risk pregnancies are diagnosed with at least one of the following conditions: prolapse, hyperexcitability, or both.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical significance of persistent left superior vena cava diagnosed in fetal life

TL;DR: To determine the prevalence and clinical significance of persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) in fetuses with and without cardiac and extracardiac anomalies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prenatal diagnosis of absent right and persistent left superior vena cava.

TL;DR: Persistence of left superior vena cava (LSVC) is a known variant of the systemic venous return in the setting of an otherwise structurally normal heart but persistence of the LSVC is rare.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fetal persistent left superior vena cava in cases with and without chromosomal anomalies.

TL;DR: The objectives of this study are to determine and compare the prevalence of persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) in chromosomally normal and abnormal fetuses and to evaluate the potential of PLSVC as a screening marker for chromosomal abnormalities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prenatal diagnosis of abnormal cardinal systemic venous return without other heart defects: a case series

TL;DR: To describe fetal spectrum and echocardiographic characteristics of anomalous systemic venous return without other structural heart defects (ASVR, cardinal veins) and evaluate associated extracardiac and genetic anomalies and review neonatal outcome.

Polysplenia: a review of 146 cases.

TL;DR: The anomalies found support the previous description of this condition as bilateral leftsidedness, and cardiac anomalies occurring in at least half of the patients include bilateral superior vena cava and morphologic left ventricular outflow obstruction.

Three-vessel view of the fetal upper mediastinum: an easy means of detecting abnormalities of the ventricular outflow tracts and great arteries during obstetric screening

TL;DR: The normal anatomy of the three‐vessel view is described and what anatomical changes would occur in this view when there are lesions of the ventricular outflow tracts and/or great arteries are analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Congenital Anomalies Involving the Coronary Sinus

TL;DR: Anomalies involving the coronary sinus often are associated with other venous anomalies, either of the systemic or the pulmonary circulation, and in some there is no basic disturbance of the circulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Left superior vena cava: A review of associated congenital heart lesions, catheterization data and roentgenologic findings

TL;DR: Data from clinical, roentgenologic and catheterization studies on thirty patients with a left superior vena cava are presented, showing a higher incidence of arrhythmias during the procedure and difficulty in introducing the catheter past the right atrium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathogenesis of Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava with a Coronary Sinus Connection

TL;DR: Investigation of a persistent left superior vena cava with coronary sinus connection should suggest an associated malformation, especially atrioventricular canal, cor triatriatum, or mitral atresia, and the malformations associated with persistent LSVC support that view.
