[A successful surgical repair of anomalous right pulmonary venous connection with Goldenhar syndrome].
A ten-year-old girl with Goldenhar syndrome underwent intracardial repair for partial anomalous right pulmonary venous connection into the superior vena cava. In surgical procedure the proximal tract of superior vena cava was reconstructed into double floor, low floor was tract for anomalous pulmonary venous blood drained into left atrium through the atrial septal defect which was made with resection of prinum septum, upper floor was a real tract for superior venous blood. After operation, arrhythmia did not detect. One month after operation, no stenosis along the superior vena cava or right pulmonary vein were evidenced in catheterization. This surgical technique is superior to using baffle for preventing thrombogenesis. The result suggested that this surgical technique is preferable to the reconstruction of baffle in superior vena cava.
