Persistent left superior vena cava∗

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1959
Abstract On the basis of our cases as well as the data in the literature we can conclude that discovery of a left superior vena cava during cardiac catheterization or angiocardiography is of great importance both from the clinical and surgical standpoint.

Persistent left superior vena cava

American Heart Journal, 1955
Abstract Three cases of persistent bilateral superior venae cavae diagnosed by cardiac catheterization have been presented. The embryologic development of the superior venae cavae has been reviewed. When the left superior vena cava empties into the right atrium via the coronary sinus, there is no change in circulatory dynamics such as occurs when ...

Persistent left superior vena cava

Clinical Anatomy, 2006
Congenital venous anomalies are relatively common and some have clinical implications. An example of persistent left superior vena cava was found during a routine dissection. This vein was carefully dissected and followed to its termination in the right atrium. The same cadaver also presented four branches from the arch of the aorta.

Persistent left superior vena cava

Journal of Cardiothoracic Anesthesia, 1989
A PERSISTENT LEFT superior vena cava draining into the coronary sinus is usually of little hemodynamic consequence, but it may become significant during cardiac catheterization, transvenous pacemaker insertion, cardiac surgery, surgery of the left mediastinum, or when it is used as a route for pulmonary artery (PA) flow-directed catheter placement.1-3 ...

Persistent left superior vena cava isolation in patients with atrial fibrillation: Selective or empirical?

Pacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACE, 2023
Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most prevalent form of thoracic venous abnormality and can serve as a significant arrhythmogenic source in atrial fibrillation (AF).

Catheterization of a Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava

The Journal of Vascular Access, 2009
Patency of the left superior vena cava, although uncommon, is the most frequent anomaly of the thoracic vessels. It has been diagnosed in 0.3–0.5% of the general population. A persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) results from the abnormal persistence of an embryological vessel that normally involutes into the coronary sinus during fetal life ...

Successful transvenous lead extraction of abandoned lead implanted through persistent left superior vena cava.

Future Cardiology, 2022
Persistent left superior vena cava, the most common thoracic venous anomaly, may complicate transvenous lead extraction (TLE). We report a successful case of TLE in a patient with persistent left superior vena cava, despite a long dwelling time and ...
