Persistent Left Superior Vena Cava in a Hemodialysis Patient [PDF]
, 2022 We report a case of end-stage renal disease with a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) after placement of hemodialysis (HD) catheter through the left internal jugular vein as revealed on routine post-procedure chest X-ray.

Challenging pacemaker implantation:persistent left superior vena cava with absent right superior vena cava [PDF]
, 2008 A persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) in combination with an absent right superior vena cava (RSVC) is a rare congenital cardiovascular abnormality which is usually found by chance during pacemaker (PM) implantation.

Risks and Benefits of Using a Commercially Available Ventricular Assist Device for Failing Fontan Cavopulmonary Support: A Modeling Investigation [PDF]
, 2019 Fontan patients often develop circulatory failure and are in desperate need of a therapeutic solution. A blood pump surgically placed in the cavopulmonary pathway can substitute the function of the absent sub-pulmonary ventricle by generating a mild pressure boost.

Target Flow-Pressure Operating Range for Designing a Failing Fontan Cavopulmonary Support Device [PDF]
, 2019 Fontan operation as the current standard of care for the palliation of single ventricle defects results in significant late complications. Using a mechanical circulatory device for the right circulation to serve the function of the missing subpulmonary ventricle could potentially stabilize the failing Fontan circulation.

A sharp interface Lagrangian-Eulerian method for rigid-body fluid-structure interaction [PDF]
, 2020 This paper introduces a sharp interface method to simulate fluid-structure interaction (FSI) involving rigid bodies immersed in viscous incompressible fluids. The capabilities of this methodology are demonstrated for a range of benchmark test cases along with large-scale models of biomedical FSI.

Role of Echocardiography in Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect Combined with Systemic and Pulmonary Vascular Disease [PDF]
, 2012 We present a case of persistent left superior vena cava, anomalous right pulmonary venous connection to the right-sided superior vena cava and sinus venosus atrial septal defect detected by computed tomography (CT) pulmonary angiography and ...

A finite element solver and energy stable coupling for 3D and 1D fluid models [PDF]
, 2013 The paper develops a solver based on a conforming finite element method for a 3D--1D coupled incompressible flow problem. New coupling conditions are introduced to ensure a suitable bound for the cumulative energy of the model. We study the stability and accuracy of the discretization method, and the performance of some state-of-the-art linear ...
