摘要: Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection has previously been reported in the dog, but never a cat. A 14-month-old Devon Rex cat was presented for echocardiography to evaluate heart murmur noticed during routine examination. The pertinent finding right-sided cardiomegaly absence of an atrial septal defect or tricuspid regurgitation; hypertension suspected. thoracic computed tomographic angiography study identified partial with lobar veins left caudal, right middle, caudal and accessory lung lobes draining into vena cava. resultant volume overload is easily overlooked differential diagnosis cardiac enlargement. This first such report this anomaly
