Iatrogenic diversion of the inferior vena cava (IVC) to the left atrium during surgical closure of an atrial septal defect (ASD) is a very rare complication in the era of cardiopulmonary bypass. The eustachian valve could be mistaken for the margin of the ASD. We report a case with this complication after closure of a sinus venosus ASD of the IVC type.
