“…A series from Duke University, for example, reports that 4.5% of the patients with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome also had a persistent left superior vena cava [1]. There are other reports of the co-existence of accessory pathways and left superior vena cava [2][3][4]. Kler et al reported a case with inferior vena cava interruption and an azygos vein draining into the RAwho also had a left free wall accessory pathway [5].…”

“…Mit Persistenz der linken Kardinalvene kommt es wahrscheinlich dann zu einer Dominanz des linksseitigen Schrittmachers und der Ausbildung abnormer atrialer Rhythmen [7]. Die Persistenz der linken V. cava und der damit verbundene große Sinus coronarius können auch das "myocard mapping" zur Diagnostik von ektopen Schrittmachern erschweren [5]. Gelegentlich wird die Vene aber auch bewusst zur Implantation von Herzschrittmachern oder Defibrillatoren genutzt [7].…”

The incidental detection of a persistent left vena cava superior during insertion of a pulmonary artery catheter in a patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) prior to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy is reported. A persistent left vena cava superior is the most frequent thoracic malformation and can be associated with other malformations such as congenital heart disease. Therefore, further diagnostic evaluation is needed especially in pulmonary hypertension and ARDS. Anaesthesiologists should be aware of the specific aspects associated with a persistent left vena cava superior.
