Isolated supra-cardiac partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection causing right heart failure

Abstract: Right heart failure (RHF) has been overlooked as left heart failure has predominated. One of the many causes of RHF is partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC), an extremely rare entity in nature. Physicians should consider the unusual causes of RHF after ruling out the common causes.

“…While one or more pulmonary veins are defective in the partial type, all the pulmonary veins are unrelated to the left atrium in total anomaly 5 . PAPVR is most commonly encountered in the supracardiac form, in which the right upper pulmonary vein drains into the right atrium or superior vena cava, 6 as in our case. The abnormal pulmonary venous return may be supracardiac, cardiac, infracardiac, or mixed type.…”

“…Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) is another congenital vascular anomaly that is characterized by the drainage of one or more pulmonary veins to systemic circulation or right atrium [20,21 ]. Four variants of PAPVR have been reported: supra-cardiac, cardiac, infra-cardiac and mixed [22]. The most common venous return anomaly is the drainage of the right superior pulmonary vein to superior vena cava or right atrium.…”
