摘要:
Magnetic resonance imaging was performed on 11 patients with partial anomalous pulmonary venous connections (PAPVC). Ten of these patients also had echocardiographic examinations, eight of which included color-flow Doppler studies. The diagnosis of PAPVC was confirmed in each of these patients by surgery or angiography. Fourteen anomalous pulmonary venous connections were identified, 10 involving the right upper lobe pulmonary vein and 4 involving the left upper lobe pulmonary vein. This retrospective review demonstrated that all 14 anomalous venous connections were correctly identified by MR imaging, whereas only 8 of 13 (62%) were identified by echocardiography. With MR, 89% of all the pulmonary veins and 93% of the anomalous pulmonary veins were visualized on axial images, while 41% of all pulmonary veins and 71% of anomalous veins were seen on coronal MR images. There were five atrial septal defects (ASDs), four of the sinus venosus type and one of the septum secundum type. All five ASDs were correctly identified with MR imaging; three of four ASDs were identified with echocardiography. We conclude that MR imaging provides an accurate noninvasive method of depicting the anatomic abnormalities associated with PAPVC.
