摘要
This report describes a 7-year-old girl with an anomalous connection between the inferior vena cava and the left atrium documented with intraoperative transesophageal color-coded Doppler flow echocardiography and angiography. This rare congenital disorder should be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients with cyanosis without cardiac murmurs. Operation is the only method for correction.
