CLINICAL CASE OF BIPLASTIC CORRECTION OF ABNORMAL PULMONARY VEIN DRAINAGE WITH SINUS VENOSUS DEFECT IN A DOMINANT INNOMINATE VEIN IN ADOLESCENCE

Sinus venosus defectis an unusual type of interatrial communication and is almost always combined with partial abnormal pulmonary vein drainage (PAPVD) into the superior venacava (SVC) or right atrium (RA). Different types of venous outflow through the vena cava occur: the presence of an additional left vena cava with different drainage loci to both right and left atriaor, as in our case, the dominant unpaired vein directly draining into the right atrium with outprior communication with the superior right vena cava. This paper describes a clinical case of radical correction of partial anomalous pulmonary vein drainage combined with sinus venosus atrial septal defect (ASD) in a 14-year-old child with dominant venous outflow from the upper half of the body via innominate vein, by combined biplasty from auto pericardial patches, showing adequate upper-venous outflow under cardiopulmonary bypass. It is necessary to provide clear information about congenital heart disease and optimal timing of its surgical correction to a wide audience, not only to the professional medical community, but importantly, to the entire population of the Republic. The provision of publicly available professional information should be highlighted on the official websites of clinics and all available media opportunities, where parents and patients could be fully acquainted with the specific soft entire treatment processing an accessible and convenient information platform.
