Cor triatriatum with Raghib complex in partial atrioventricular septal defect and common atrium: a rare combination

Persistent left superior vena cava draining into the left atrium in the absence of coronary sinus and atrial septal defect (Raghib complex) is an uncommon anomaly of systemic venous drainage. We present a unique case of simultaneous presentation of cor triatriatum and persistent left superior vena c...

Zusammenfassung:Persistent left superior vena cava draining into the left atrium in the absence of coronary sinus and atrial septal defect (Raghib complex) is an uncommon anomaly of systemic venous drainage. We present a unique case of simultaneous presentation of cor triatriatum and persistent left superior vena cava draining into the left atrium in an adult female with partial AV canal and common atrium. Complex intra-atrial baffling including a procedure to redirect flow from a proximal atrial chamber was successful.
