Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: Report of 93 autopsied cases with emphasis on diagnostic and surgical considerations.

TLDR
Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is failure of development of the common pulmonary vein, with consequent ersistence and enlargement of embryonic collaterals between the lungs and the systemic veins.

Mixed supra- and infradiaphragmatic totally anomalous pulmonary venous connection in an adolescent.

TL;DR: An unusual type of mixed totally anomalous pulmonary venous drainage in an 11-year-old boy was diagnosed on angiography and surgical correction of this abnormality was successfully performed.

Reoperations After Repair of Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

TL;DR: Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection is a congenital abnormality which results from failure of pulmonary vein “buds” to link into the posterior aspect of the left atrium, and detours by a variety of different routes, either to the right atrium directly or indirectly, via one of the great systemic veins, superior or inferior vena cava.

TL;DR: It is reported that 20 year female referred for evaluation of murmur diagnosed to have non-obstructive pulmonary venous drainage to the supradiaphragmatic inferior vena cava is reported.

Abnormal Venous Drainage

TL;DR: This chapter reviews embryology, epidemiology, anatomy, physiology, clinical presentation, management, and postoperative imaging evaluation of congenital pulmonary venous anomalies in the pediatric population to discuss the role of noninvasive imaging studies in this group of disorders.

Intracardiac surgery in neonates and infants using deep hypothermia with surface cooling and limited cardiopulmonary bypass.

TL;DR: Thirty-three of 37 infants under 10 kg in weight, with correctable lesions, survived this procedure, including 25 aged 8 days to 12 months, and is believed to have wide application in the neonatal and infant group.

TL;DR: The author has shown that early splenic primordia exist at the time of fusion of the A‐V canal cushions and there is a primitive gut mesentery in the left aspect of the dorsal mesogastrium.

Cor triatriatum: Pathologic anatomy and a consideration of morphogenesis based on 13 postmortem cases and a study of normal development of the pulmonary vein and atrial septum in 83 human embryos

TL;DR: The pathologic and embryologic findings strongly suggest that cor triatriatum results from entrapment of the left atrial ostium of the common pulmonary vein by tissue of the right horn of the sinus venosus from which septum primum develops, leading to failure of incorporation of theCommon pulmonary vein into theleft atrium during the fifth embryonic week.

Development of the pulmonary veins; with reference to the embryology of anomalies of pulmonary venous return.

TL;DR: The examination of serial sections of human embryos between 24 and 34 days and the use of plastic reconstructions showed that the common pulmonary vein develops as an outgrowth from the medial superior wall of the left auricle and unites with the angioblastic plexus of the developing lung bud.
