Persistent Left Sided SVC With A Bridging /Intercommunicating Vein & Stenosis Of The Bridging Vein ON CT
Journal Title: National Journal of Medical and Dental Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Persistence of left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a rare anomaly. The incidence of a persistent left SVC in general population is 0.3-0.5% whereas in congenital heart disease it is between 5-10%. In general, left superior vena cava seldom shows any intercommunication. There are very few cases of left SVC with an intercommunicating vein and even only few reports of stenosis in the bridging vein. We present an incidentally diagnosed case of left SVC with the presence of a bridging vein with stenosis in the intercommunicating vein proximal to left sided SVC in a case of 2 year old girl.
