An Alternative Technique for Rechanneling of Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect With Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection Using Autogenous Right Atrial Appendage
We report a new technique for closure of sinus venosus atrial septal defect with high partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection. This technique consisted of preservation of the atriocaval junction, advancement of the posterior rim of the atrial septal defect anterosuperiorly and enlargement of the superior caval vein using right atrial appendage. We found this to be a convenient technique and recommend it for correction of this anomaly.
