Meandering right pulmonary vein: a case of scimitar variant.
We report a healthy, asymptomatic 15-year-old girl with a meandering right pulmonary vein draining to the left atrium. A meandering pulmonary vein may or may not be associated with the scimitar syndrome. The differential diagnosis with the scimitar syndrome and other forms of scimitar variants is discussed.
