| Abstract: | The direct abnormal drainage of the inferior vena cava (IVC), while rare, is well‐recognized anomaly of systemic venous drainage. It has been reported both in isolation and in association with other cardiac defects. This is a case of an abnormal drainage of IVC into left atrium (LA) together with partial abnormal pulmonary venous drainage to the right atrium (RA) and atrium septal defect (ASD). |
