Abstract
This report describes our method of repairing the sinus venosus type of atrial septal defects. The superior vena cava is compartmentatlized by means of a single double-armed suture. Caval catheters are used as temporary internal shunts, and a vertical U-shaped patch is incorporated into the atriotomy suture line. The experiences with 27 cases are presented.Entities:
