DOI: 10.1053/j.semtcvs.2019.04.009
Abstract: Rerouting of persistent left superior vena cava is necessary in correction of certain congenital cardiac conditions. Techniques previously described involve either an "intracardiac" baffle or an "extracardiac" connection between the left superior vena cava and… read more here.
