Abnormalities of pulmonary venous return in adults result from anomalous drainage of one or more pulmonary veins into a systemic vein, resulting in a left-to-right shunt. Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) is most commonly encountered in adults in the upper lobes. PAPVR in the right upper lobe is commonly associated with a sinus venous atrial septal defect, whereas in the right lower lobe it is commonly encountered in association with other anomalies in Scimitar syndrome. Left upper lobe PAPVR is usually isolated. In some instances, patients can develop pulmonary over-circulation and hypertension, necessitating intervention. This chapter emphasizes CT and MR features key to recognizing and diagnosing these anomalies.

Sinus venosus atrial septal defect (ASD) is usually associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) of the right pulmonary veins to the superior vena cava (SVC), or to the SVC-right atrial junction. Standard procedure for repair of this defect is a patch roofing of the sinus venosus ASD and rerouting of pulmonary veins. However, the presence of SVC stenosis is a complication of this technique, and SVC augmentation is necessary in some cases. We present a simple technique for concomitant closure of sinus venosus ASD associated with PAPVR and augmentation of the SVC with a single autologous pericardial patch.
