Gadolinium-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Angiography in Scimitar Syndrome: Diagnosis and Postoperative Evaluation
AUTOR(ES)
Gilkeson, Robert C.
RESUMO
We report the 1st magnetic resonance demonstration of both an anomalous pulmonary venous drainage and systemic arterial supply in a patient with scimitar syndrome. With its superior imaging capabilities, gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography provides a powerful diagnostic tool for this complex congenital lesion and offers the possibility of surgical repair and follow-up without conventional cardiac catheterization.
