title: Surgical repair of coronary sinus orifice atresia with persistent left superior vena cava in heterotaxia.
abstract: A 6-month-old boy was diagnosed with coronary sinus orifice atresia, double-outlet right ventricle, complete atrioventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and moderate common atrioventricular valve regurgitation associated with heterotaxy syndrome. Cardiac venous flow drained through a persistent left superior vena cava. We decided to perform coronary sinus orifice unroofing through the right atrium under a guide using a bougie. The persistent left superior vena cava was divided. Bidirectional Glenn anastomosis and edge-to-edge common atrioventricular valve repair were concomitantly performed. After a 1-year follow-up period, the patient is alive and well without any ischemic event.
