Non-obstructed supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection with giant superior vena cava aneurysm

Abstract Background Giant superior vena cava (SVC) aneurysm in non-obstructed supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is even more rare than in obstructed one, and this combination has not been reported. Case presentation Here we reported a 29-year‐old young lady with non-ob...

description Abstract Background Giant superior vena cava (SVC) aneurysm in non-obstructed supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is even more rare than in obstructed one, and this combination has not been reported. Case presentation Here we reported a 29-year‐old young lady with non-obstructed TAPVC complicated with a giant SVC aneurysm. Routine TAPVC correction and tricuspid valve repair were done. Additionally, venoctomy was carried out to seek for its histological etiology and to avoid potential complications. Conclusions If confirmed by further and larger experiences, for patients with non-obstructed supracardiac TAPVC with giant SVC aneurysm, surgical treatment of SVC aneurysm could be more aggressive to prevent cardiovascular complications.
