Abstract
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) is a congenital anom aly in which one or more, but not all, of the pulmonary veins are conn ected to a systemic vein or to the right atrium directly. Its incidenc e is higher in autopsy series than in clinical series. We report 51 ca ses of PAPVR diagnosed by cardiac catheterization and evaluated from t he aspects of age, sex, type and associated anomalies and diseases.
