Cor triatriatum may be associated with abnormalities of pulmonary venous anatomy. This case report describes a unique form of partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection. The patient presented at 5 weeks of age with symptoms of tachypnea and poor feeding. Echocardiography demonstrated cor triatriatum and partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage of the right upper lung. The patient underwent urgent repair of cor triatriatum. It was elected to not address the partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection at that time. The patient returned at age 19 months for elective repair of the anomalous pulmonary venous connection. There was also a large vein connecting the right lower pulmonary veins to the superior vena cava. This was repaired by dividing the superior vena cava along a vertical axis to redirect the flow of the anomalous pulmonary veins through the connecting vein to the left atrium. This report describes the anatomy and surgical approach to a unique form of anomalous pulmonary venous connection.
