Left atrial anomalous muscular band as incidental finding during video-assisted mitral surgery [PDF]
Congenital fibromuscular bands have been described inleft ventricle or right atrium and have been diagnosed by echocardiography and CT scan. The first report of anomalous band in the left atrium was described in 1897 by Rollestone (1).

Meandering pulmonary veins [PDF]
Abstract Rationale: Meandering pulmonary vein is a rare congenital pulmonary vascular anomaly. It presents unilateral single pulmonary vein that takes a circuitous route in the lung and drains normally into the left atrium. Most cases of meandering pulmonary vein have been reported to be right-sided.

Circulatory contributors to the phenotype in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia [PDF]
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is mechanistically and therapeutically challenging, not only because of the molecular and cellular perturbations that generate vascular abnormalities, but also the modifications to circulatory physiology that ...

Role of MDCT in evaluation of congenital and acquired anomalies of pulmonary venous drainage
Objective: This work aimed for detection of different congenital and acquired abnormalities affecting the pulmonary veins using multislice computed tomography (MSCT). Patients and methods: This study was carried on 74 patients.

Pulmonary veins firing simultaneously [PDF]
A 62-year-old man was referred for catheter ablation of symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation refractory to propafenone and dronedarone. Isoproterenol in doses of 1–5 mg/min was administered for testing purposes after the completion of pulmonary vein (PV) isolation guided by a 20-electrode circular mapping catheter.

ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.

Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare congenital anomaly of the pulmonary veins drainage. In this entity, the pulmonary veins, instead of draining to left atrium, connect abnormally to the systemic venous circulation.

Spontaneous and induced pulmonary vein tachycardia after pulmonary vein isolation [PDF]
A case is reported of recurrence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after pulmonary vein ablation. A second procedure achieved isolation of three pulmonary veins and showed persistence of pulmonary vein tachycardia in one with implications concerning the electrophysiology of atrial fibrillation.
