Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava: A Finding After Central Venous Catheterization.
European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2021 Introduction Persistence of the left superior vena cava (LSVC) is a rare anatomical variant in the general population, with an estimated incidence of 0.3-0.5% in healthy individuals. It may be diagnosed incidentally after imaging control of the placement

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT It is evident that Turner syndrome (TS) impacts almost all developmental stages of the fetal heart with congenital heart disease (CHD) being seen in 23%–50% of individuals. Although the spectrum of CHDs in TS is well‐established, with left‐sided lesions predominating, the influence of specific karyotypes on the prevalence and types of CHDs ...

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 839-847, April 2025.Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava with Absent Right Superior Vena Cava
Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2018 Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most common congenital abnormality of the thoracic systemic venous drainage; in fact, cardiology fellows in training are often quizzed on this when a dilated coronary sinus is noted on an echocardiogram.

Pacemaker Placement in Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava [PDF]
Cureus, 2017 Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a rare disorder which is asymptomatic and hence is usually discovered while performing interventions through the left subclavian vein. We present a case of a 78-year-old male who was undergoing elective placement of a permanent pacemaker for tachycardia - bradycardia syndrome with post-conversion pauses of ...

Percutaneous mechanical circulatory support for acute right heart failure: A practical approach
ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.This is an overview of percutaneous mechanical circulatory support options for acute right heart failure, illustrating key clinical scenarios, device types, and principles of tailored device selection based on haemodynamics and underlying pathology. Abstract Acute right heart failure (RHF) represents a critical entity with significant morbidity and ...
