A technique for conversion of an intra-atrial baffle repair to an extracardiac repair is described for complex unroofed coronary sinus syndrome (including a complete atrioventricular septal defect) with connection of the left superior caval vein to the roof of the left-sided atrium. The left superior caval vein was divided distally and anastomosed to the right superior caval vein in an end-to-side fashion. In addition, the baffle in the left-sided atrium connecting the pulmonary veins with the left atrioventricular valve orifice was removed and the atria were septated. This extracardiac repair technique avoids the various disadvantages of the intra-atrial baffle technique such as creation of a small left atrium with low compliance.

AbstractUnroofed coronary sinus syndrome complicated by coronary sinus orifice atresia is a rare congenital anomaly. There are two alternate exits for coronary venous return: unroofed coronary sinus and persistent left superior caval vein. The coronary venous direction could be bidirectional depending on the pressure balance between the left atrium and the systemic vein. This anomaly has the risk of heart failure, paradoxical embolism, and cyanosis.

Coronary sinus ostial atresia is a rare disease. Most patients are usually asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally during surgery or at autopsy. We report a case of coronary sinus ostial atresia with unroofed coronary sinus syndrome in a previously healthy woman who presented with infective endocarditis.

The anomalies of drainage of systemic venous communications to the heart are many. But only few cause significant hemodynamic alteration and thus, complications. When they do, they need to be surgically corrected. We report an unusual case of a patient who was found to have left pulmonary veins draining into the left superior venacava (LSVC), which in turn was opening into the roof of the left atrium that had unroofed coronary sinus morphology. Innominate vein was absent. LSVC was divided cranial to where the pulmonary veins were draining into it. Lower end was suture closed. Proximal part of the LSVC was anastamosed to left pulmonary artery.
