Abstract
Persistent left superior cava mostly drains into the right atrium via the coronary sinus. It rarely drains into the left atrium. Extracardiac and intracardiac repair techniques have been described for the repair of persistent left superior vena cava draining into the left atrium. Herein, we report the successful application of a new intracardiac repair technique by using a turned-in left atrial appendage in a 3-year-old male patient with a persistent left superior vena cava draining into the left atrium.
