ABSTRACT
A patient was delivered at 26 weeks (about 6 months) gestation via an emergency caesarian section. A patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and atrial septal defect (ASD) were discovered during an echocardiogram 13 days after birth. The patient had catheter-based closure of the PDA and ASD. During a routine echocardiogram to check device placements, it was discovered that there was dilation of the superior vena cava (SVC), and it was suspected that a thrombus was present. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) was completed to better define SVC anatomy and flow acceleration. The CTA demonstrated that there was a double innominate vein.
