Abstract
The clinical, radiologic and echocardiographic findings in a one-year old dog with mild subvalvular aortic stenosis and aberrant caudal vena caval circulation are described. Aberrant systemic venous return to t he right side of the heart usually has little clinical significance, b ut the unusual features in survey radiographs, contrast angiograms and contrast echocardiograms constitute the reasons for this report.
