Right partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection to the superior vena cava following the Warden procedure

Carine Pavy, Nathaly Gavira, Pierre Maminirina, Olivier Baron University Hospital Nantes.France Journal of Cardiac SurgeryJ Card Surg 2018; 33: 565-569DOI: 10.1111/jocs.13782 AbstractBackground and aims: Surgical repair of right partial pulmonary anomalous connection to the superior vena cava (SVC) with the Warden procedure can be complicated by SVC obstruction, pulmonary veins obstruction, and sinus node dysfunction. We review […]
