Abstract

Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is the most common anomalous thoracic venous drainage. A PLSVC usually drains into the right atrium through a dilated coronary sinus. It is rare that a PLSVC flows directly into the left atrium, and even rarer that it connects to the left upper pulmonary vein (LUPV). We report a case, wherein the LUPV connected to both the PLSVC and the left atrium.
