ABSTRACT
A case of 'absent' left pulmonary vein with ventricular septal defect was diagnosed based on echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac catheterization at newborn stage. Pulmonary arterial banding was performed at the age of 1 month to ameliorate the pulmonary flow. At a cardiac catheterization 1 year later, the left pulmonary veins were visualized with moderate stenosis at their entrance into the left atrium. The patient has been stable after surgical repair of the ventricular septal defect and dilation of the pulmonary venous stenosis.
