摘要：Sinus venosus defect (SVD) accounts for 4％-11％ of all atrial septal defects (ASD) and may present with dyspnea,heart failure (HF),pal-pitations,or angina.[1]The malformation typically in-volves an interatrial communication due to a deficiency in the common wall connecting the right pulmonary veins and the superior vena cava (SVC) and often ac-companies anomalous pulmonary venous connection of some or all of the pulmonary veins.[1]Trans-esopha-geal echocardiography (TEE) is an accurate modality for the diagnosis of SVD.[2]Surgical repair is more com-plex than repair of secundum ASD,[3]as the patient is at higher risk for residual shunting and stenosis of pul-monary veins or SVC with repair of SVD.[4]The average age at the time of surgical repair in patients with SVD is 8.3 years.[5]This case report describes a 68-year-old fe-male with right HF symptoms who was found to have SVD and partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR).
