We present three unusual cases of total anomalous systemic venous drainage (TASVD) where all the systemic veins were abnormally connected to the atrium that drained into the left ventricle (LV). All three patients had features consistent with left atrial isomerism. Based on the available evidence and review of literature we propose that TASVD be included as a part of the syndrome of left atrial isomerism. A classification for TASVD is also proposed with surgical implications.

“…Among 100 patients with anomalous systemic venous connections undergoing surgery, only 3 patients have a total anomalous systemic venous connection to the left atrium. 2 Only a few cases have been reported thus far, [3][4][5][6][7][8] and the literature on this subject has more of a surgical perspective. Most patients presented later in life, from childhood to adulthood, mainly with cyanosis.…”

Prenatal diagnosis of isolated total anomalous systemic venous connection to the left atrium

We report the prenatal diagnosis and the neonatal follow-up of a patient with isolated total abnormal systemic venous connection to the left atrium. Right-sided and left-sided superior caval veins and the inferior caval vein were all connected to the left atrium. Pulmonary venous return was normal. This was associated with some right ventricular underdevelopment. To our knowledge, this is the first fetal description of this very rare congenital cardiac malformation.

“…TASVC is usually associated with atrioventricular septal defect, common atrium, both primum as well as secundum types of ASD, and heterotaxia. 1,[6][7][8] Cyanosis and paradoxical embolic events are often the presenting features. 1-8 Two-dimensional transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography when combined with different bolus injections of contrast from the left and right peripheral arm and femoral veins, provides a reliable method of assessment of systemic venous connections.…”
