Figure 1 Echo bubble study (A): only the left cavities are filled after AS injection through the right arm, underscoring a RLS. 2D and 3D rendering CT images (B and C): persistent LSVC drains into the RA through the CS. RSVC drains into the LA, causing RLS.AoA = ascending aorta (partially cut); CS = coronary sinus; IVC = inferior vena cava; LA = left atrium; LIPV = left inferior pulmonary vein; LSPV = left superior pulmonary vein; LSVC = left superior vena cava; LV = left ventricle; RA = right atrium; RLS = right-to-left shunt; RSPV = right superior pulmonary vein; RSVC = right superior vena cava.
