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.

Abstract Background A single right coronary artery (RCA) with the left anterior descending (LAD) and circumflex coronary arteries located in the usual anatomic position and supplied by collaterals is the rarest variant of single RCA. Case summary We report a paediatric patient with an incidental finding of single RCA Lipton type RI pattern during assessment for transcatheter device closure of an ostium secundum atrial septal defect (secASD). Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) revealed a dilated RCA, abnormal flow in the LAD, and no identifiable left main coronary artery. Diagnosis of a single RCA was confirmed with angiography. Dobutamine stress echocardiography revealed no inducible ischaemia. Transcatheter device closure of the secASD was subsequently successfully performed. Discussion TTE in paediatric patients can raise suspicion of coronary artery origin anomalies. Additional modalities, such as computed tomography and angiography, are required to comprehensively determine coronary artery anatomy. Functional assessment of ventricular function is also indicated. Coronary artery anatomy is important to delineate prior to transcatheter device closure of a secASD and should be part of the pre-procedure assessment.

Inferior sinus venosus arterial septal defect (ASD) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. As with other types of ASDs and patent foramen ovale (PFO), this defect results in arteri-venous shunting with the risk of developing paradoxical embolism (PDE) to the systemic circulation from venous emboli. We report  a case of a 67-year-old lady presented to emergency department (ED) with massive pulmonary embolism (PE) and recurrent acute limb ischaemia. On CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA), an incidental finding of inferior sinus venosus ASD was discovered that has caused the PDE. Thrombolysis was administered followed by open mechanical thrombectomy. The patient developed massive lower gastrointestinal bleed post thrombolysis then passed away despite embolization. This case report describes the catastrophic effect of  PDE to cause disseminated multisystem thromboembolism. It also emphasizes the importance of early detection of a possible right-to-left shunt in patients presented with recurrent acute limb ischaemia. Transthoracic echocardiography has reduced sensitivity for inferior sinus venosus ASD requiring further assessment with transoesophageal echocardiography in selected cases.
