“…in 1984. [6] The use of a ringed ECC (12–16 mm in diameter) for repair of SS in adults was reported with satisfactory early and midterm by Guerra et al . [7] This technique was also described in two pediatric patients with SS (4 and 14 years old) by Lam et al .…”

Scimitar syndrome (SS) can be repaired by different surgical techniques including direct implantation, intracardiac rerouting, and in situ pericardial channel to direct the Scimitar vein (SV) to the left atrium. The presence of several anatomical variations such as remote infradiaphragmatic drainage of the SV and abnormal situs makes the repair more challenging with conventional repair techniques. In this paper, we present our experience in using an extracardiac-ringed polytetrafluoroethylene conduit in two pediatric patients (14 months and 2 years old) with SS.

“…In spite of being a complete anatomic repair with satisfactory intermediate results, the disadvantages of this technique include the requirement of extensive mobilization of the SV (complicated in dextroposition), change in angulation at hilum from acute to right angle after reimplantation leading to kinking on inflation of right lung and doubtful growing potential. [2][3][4] The choice of RA or LA depends on the length and mobility of SV and its relation to the lung hilum. [5] Risk of stenosis is similar in both the aforementioned methods.…”

Scimitar syndrome (SS) has been repaired using different surgical procedures like intracardiac baffle and redirection (directly or by using synthetic grafts) of the scimitar vein to the right or left atrium. However, several accompanying anatomic abnormalities make these interventions difficult. The most common variations complicating reimplantation of the scimitar vein (SV) include dextrocardia, hypoplasia of the right pulmonary artery and lung sequestration. Here, we present a novel method for extracardiac repair of SS with dextrocardia and intact atrial septum in which the right superior and inferior pulmonary veins formed a common venous chamber at the diaphragmatic surface and opening at the right atrium (RA) and inferior vena cava (IVC) junction. Although the use of pericardial tube grafts is seen in literature before, its use for rerouting a complex venous complex into left atrium is first reported in this case.

“…The Group I correspond to adult patients without pulmonary hypertension (PH) and with interatrial septal communication; group II, It has complex congenital abnormalities affecting the symptomatology and the natural history of this syndrome; Group III the child is characterized by severe and poor PH prognosis [10][11][12][13]. The most common symptoms present in all patients were breathing and progressive dyspnea [11,12,14]. In some cases the radiographic sign of the scimitar is not observed as a consequence of the cardiac dextrorotation or because of the venous collector is not curved or wide rather than straight, slim or multiple.…”

“…It is very important to determine the levels of the supra connection for a better surgical management. A surgical alternative could be the re-implantation of the manifold to the rear wall of the left atrium without extracorporeal circulation, as Brown and collaborators carried out it [12,14,[17][18][19][20].…”
