A rare combination : a single common pulmonary vein with polysplenia syndrome
A single common pulmonary vein is a rare anomaly, mostly occurring with asplenia. We wanted to report our case because it co-exists with polysplenia and ciliary dyskinesia.A baby girl about 2 months old with respiratory arrest was admitted to the emergency room of our hospital. She responded to pulmonary resuscitation. We ascertained from her medical history that she had been hospitalised twice because of recurrent lung infections. After the initial check and treatment, we applied imaging modalities to detect underlying problems of recurrent lung infection. Echocardiographic evaluation was suboptimal because of the widespread pulmonary infiltration. Still, we noticed a single common pulmonary vein without obstruction at the junction of the left atrium. Subsequently, a chest CT scan with contrast was performed. It revealed a single common pulmonary vein entering the left atrium with a single orifice, atrial septal defect, two lobes in both lungs, hepatic veins draining directly into the right atrium, and polysplenia. When the flow of a single common pulmonary vein goes directly to the right atrium through the defect, it may cause right heart dilatation as it did in our case. Therefore, patients may need to undergo surgery at an earlier age.
