We present a rare case of scimitar syndrome in which the scimitar vessel, collecting all the right pulmonary veins, was stenotic at its junction, with the inferior caval vein and two anomalous vessels, connecting to the same venous collector, draining most of the flow to the left atrium. We arbitrarily defined this rare anatomical variant as a congenitally palliated scimitar syndrome.

Abstract
We present a rare case of scimitar syndrome in which the scimitar vessel, collecting all the right pulmonary veins, was stenotic at its junction, with the inferior caval vein and two anomalous vessels, connecting to the same venous collector, draining most of the flow to the left atrium. We arbitrarily defined this rare anatomical variant as a congenitally palliated scimitar syndrome.File in questo prodotto:
