[Radioisotope angiography in a case of persistent vena cava superior sinistra (author's transl)].
During insertion of a pacemaker electrode an anomaly of the superior vena cava was suspected. Radioisotope angiography demonstrated a persistent left superior vena cava. The clinical significance, the embryonic development and the incidence of this anomaly is described.
