Case Report: Thoracoscopic repair of a residual inferior sinus venosus-type defect with right lower pulmonary vein–inferior vena cava communication: intraoperative support using real-time 3D transesophageal echocardiography

Case Report: Thoracoscopic repair of a residual inferior sinus venosus-type defect with right lower pulmonary vein–inferior vena cava communication: intraoperative support using real-time 3D transesophageal echocardiography

BackgroundResidual venous defects after atrial septal defect (ASD) repair may remain asymptomatic for years and can be misinterpreted as partial anomalous pulmonary venous return. Accurate intraoperative imaging is essential to confirm the anatomy and guide repair, particularly in minimally invasive...
