[A case of absent right and persistent left superior vena cava: echocardiographic diagnosis]. / Hiányzó jobb oldali és perzisztáló bal oldali vena cava superior esete: echokardiográfiás diagnózis.

ABSTRACT

A 49-year-old man underwent transthoracic echocardiography for atypical chest pain. A dilated coronary sinus was found and venous contrast echocardiography raised the suspicion of absent right and persistent left superior vena cava. Transesophageal echocardiography showed no presence of right superior vena cava. The echocardiographic findings were confirmed by upper venous digital subtraction cavography.
