“…At the Institute of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine in Skopje, a few studies of primary cardiac malformations in congenital heart diseases associated with anomalies of embryonic aortic arches and coronary circulation were done. The results of these previous examinations (Korneti, Kargovska) made on heart specimens fixed in 10% formaldehyde, showed that congenital heart diseases most often (70.9%) were accompanied with anomalies of the aortic arch (interrupted, hypoplastic, vascular ring with right aortic arch and coarctation) [24] . The analysis of the branching pattern of the aortic arch showed that the most common variation was reduction of the number of branches to two (3.6%) with a. carotis communis sinistra arising from truncus brachiocephalicus (Zhivadinovik, 2000) [24,18] .…”

The second most common variation was increasing the number of branches to four due to separated arising of a. vertebralis sinistra between a. carotis communis sinistra and a. subclavia sinistra (2.7%) (Kargovska, Korneti 1985) (Zhivadinovik, 2000) [24,18] .…”

The vertebral artery (a. vertebralis, VA) is classically described as the first branch of the ipsilateral subclavian artery (a. subclavia). This study aimed to show the aberrant pattern of a. vertebralis sinistra. The study included 1000 CTA images taken from 1000 patients. The only recorded variation in the origin of a. vertebralis was a separate origin of a. vertebralis sinistra (LVA) in 28 of the patients (2.8%). It was present as a four-vessel aortic arch pattern with a. vertebralis sinistra arising between a. carotis communis sinistra (LCCA) and a. subclavia sinistra (LSA). Establishing the diagnosis of these variations is very important before cerebral angiography or endovascular surgeries in the head and neck region are performed.

“…This type was the most frequent (20.8 %) among the 53 PLSVC cases classified by Uemura et al (2012). Zhivadinovik et al (2016) studied 100 cadavers and reported a coronary sinus ostium diameter of 8.1 ± 1.51 mm. This diameter in our case was 22.9 mm, which was significantly larger than usual.…”

Double-Sided Superior Vena Cava: Developmental Considerations Associated with the Thymic Veins

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The superior vena cava is usually located only on the right side, but persistence of the left superior vena cavais observed in about 0.3 to 0.5 % of adults. A routine dissection of the cadaver of a 91-year-old Japanese female, whose cause of death was sepsis due to cholecystitis, was performed at Nagasaki University and revealed a double-sided superior vena cava. On the right side, the superior vena cava opened to the right atrium, while on the left, it opened into the extended coronary sinus. Veins in the left head, neck and upper limb regions joined to form the persistent left superior vena cava, with eventual drainage into the expanded coronary vein. An anastomosing branch occurred between each superior vena cava, and two thymic veins opened to the anastomosing branch. The azygos vein in the azygos venous system opened into the right superior vena cava, whereas a hemi-azygos vein opened into the azygos vein. The accessory hemi-azygos vein also opened into the azygos vein and opened cranially into the left superior vena cava. The left supreme intercostal vein also opened into the left superior vena cava. Several studies have reported a persistent left superior vena cava and the various considerations for its occurrence. Here, we propose a new hypothesis for the embryonic development of the persistent left superior vena cava with the thymic vein. This hypothesis essentially states that the left brachiocephalic vein fails to mature due to inadequate venous return from the thymic vein during the embryonic period, and the left superior vena cava then remains to maintain venous return from the left head, neck and upper limb. We also discuss the clinical significance of the persistent left superior vena cava.

“…The orifice has a fold of endocardial tissue called Thebesian valve. Thebesian vavle is a remnant of caudal portion of the right valve of embryonic sinoatrial orifice [2]. It is situated in the diaphragmatic part of coronary sulcus.…”

Coronary sinus is the largest cardiac venous channel and its increasingly used during electrophysiological procedures like LV pacing, biventricular ICD lead placement and ablation. There are few other novel procedures under research including stem cell delivery in case of ischemic myocardium. Coronary sinus anatomy, its variations in tributaries and the clinical implications are discussed in this review article.
