Scimitar syndrome or Felsons veno-lobar syndrome is a very rare congenital disease characterized by a combination of cardiopulmonary abnormalities, including partial right-sided pulmonary venous drainage to the inferior vena cava, the inferior cavo-atrial junction, or low on the right atrium. We report the case of a 53-year-old female patient who presented with recent gradually worsening dyspnea. The diagnosis was suspected on the chest x-ray and confirmed on Cardiac echography andComputed Tomography scan that showed a wide collector gathering the three right superior pulmonary veins that joins the lower part of the superior vena cava, thus joining the right atrium while the right inferior pulmonary vein is drained into the inferior vena cava. The patient was treated surgically by performing a derivation of the right superior pulmonary venous collector to the left atrium with a tricuspid annuloplasty with a good outcome.

This chapster discusses anomalies of systemic venous drainage and anomalies of pulmonary venous drainage. It discusses superior vena cava (SVC) anomalies, inferior vena cava (IVC), total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (TAPVD), partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (PAPVD), and scimitar syndrome.

Cardiovascular Anomalies

With the use of sophisticated imaging modalities, congenital anomalies of the inferior vena cava and its tributaries, such as agenesis of the hepatic vena cava, are becoming more and more commonly encountered. Scimitar syndrome, also called venolobar syndrome and hypogenetic lung syndrome, is a rare pulmonary vascular anomaly of the right lung that can sometimes be associated with some cardiovascular anomalies. We present here a case with agenesis of the hepatic vena cava associated with scimitar syndrome.

For atrial septal defect closure via right minithoracotomy in an adult patient with infra-hepatic interruption of the inferior vena cava with azygos connection, an alternative venous cannulation strategy was applied. In addition to bicaval cannulations to the femoral vein and the internal jugular vein, a 20 Fr straight cannula draining the hepatic vein was added to the proximal IVC through the right atrium wall via a working port. A bloodless operative field in the right atrium was afforded with bicaval encircling. Preoperative imaging test of the continuity of the IVC was important planning cardiac surgery with peripheral cannulations.
