Congenital pulmonary vein stenosis with anomalous pulmonary venous connection.
An 11-month-old boy with congenital pulmonary vein stenosis, partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection, and ventricular septal defect is described. Angiocardiography demonstrated stenosis between the right upper pulmonary vein and high superior vena cava and obstruction of the right lower pulmonary vein. For pulmonary vein stenosis, we performed transverse sutured plasty for the right upper pulmonary vein, followed by right lower lobectomy. In some patients, combined management for pulmonary vein stenosis is effective.
