Echocardiographic features of total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage into the coronary sinus.

摘要: Abstract Echocardiograms were obtained from five Infants with total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage to the coronary sinus or portal system superior vena cava and one child a secundum atrial septal defect large due persistence of left cava. The results demonstrate that an enlarged is positioned consistently posterior atrium in approximately same horizontal plane as aortic valve. Echocardiographically can be located echo complex behind by using root reference point. differentiated other spurious echoes its characteristic phasic motions. additional demonstration common chamber right confirms diagnosis sinus. For types return, anatomic single crystal M mode echocardiography not always possible because positional variability relation atrium.
