Abstract

A Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC) is an uncommon congenital anomaly which occurs as result of defective development or early atresia of common pulmonary vein. TAPVC is categorized into four with supracardiac variety occurring most frequently. Common pulmonary vein anomaly results in the retention of cardinal or umbilico-vitelline drainage systems. If cardinal venous system persists, it provides channels to the innominate or azygous vein, Superior Vena Cava (SVC). This case series reports two cases of supracardiac TAPVC draining into SVC via right-sided vertical vein. Careful evaluation before surgical repair is vital for such complex cardiac anomalies.
