Abstract:
A case of supracardiac type of total anomalous pulmonary venous return into the superior vena cava is reported which was successfully diagnosed using spiral CT and three-dimensional image reconstruction. Spiral CT with three-dimensional reconstruction is non-invasive method of visualizing the vascular system and in some instances can replace conventional angiography in pediatric patients.
