The authors present their experiences with diagnosis and surgical treatment of anomalous venous drainage of the left lung into the left innominate vein. The anomaly was found only in four out of 704 patients operated on for atrial septal defect. In three patients in whom leftsided anomalous pulmonary venous drainage was associated with atrial septal defect, the derangement was corrected by using extracorporeal circulation. The patient who had no atrial defect was operated on without extracorporeal circulation on applying leftsided thoracotomy. The mean age of the patients was 26.25 years. After correcting the defect, drainage of the left lung into the left atrium was found satisfactory in all operated patients. Exact assessment of the possibility of an associated intracardiac defect is being emphasized, as it is crucial for selecting the appropriate surgical approach. |
