The Right

Pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium. Variations are quite common in the pattern of drainage. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the incidence of different draining patterns of the right pulmonary veins at the hilum by dissecting the human fixed cadaveric lungs. Clinically, pulmonary veins have been demonstrated to often play an important role in generating atrial fibrillation. Hence, it is important to look into the anatomy of the veins during MR imaging and CT angiography. In 53.8% of cases, the right superior lobar vein and right middle lobar vein were found to be united together to form the right superior pulmonary vein. In contrast to this, in 11.53% of cases, right middle lobar vein united with the right inferior lobar vein to form the right inferior pulmonary vein, while in 26.9% of cases, the right superior lobar vein, right middle lobar vein, and right inferior lobar vein drained separately.

Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

The clinical, cardiac catheterization, and postmortem findings are presented in a 9-day-old infant with cor triatriatum, anomolous pulmonary venous connections, and a hypoplastic left ventricle. The dorsal accessory left atrial chamber did not communicate with the ventral or proximal left atrium, but did have a small connection with the right atrium. The left superior pulmonary vein connected with the accessory left atrium while the left inferior pulmonary vein connected with the proximal left atrium. The latter pulmonary venous connection has not been described previously in classical cor triatriatum and raises new embryological considerations.
