Abstract

Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is uncommon with an incidence of 0.3%–1.3%. The incidence of absent papillary muscle is unknown. Congenital anomalies of a thoracic venous system associated with absent papillary muscle are very rare. During dissection of a 55-year-old male cadaver, PLSVC with absent papillary muscle was found. Although these congenital anomalies are incidentally found, it is worthwhile following such patients to look for the evolution of any cardiac symptoms. Sound knowledge and awareness of such congenital anomalies are required for radiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, and critical care physicians.

持续性左上腔静脉伴乳头肌缺失1例-异常共存

持续性左上腔静脉（PLSVC）并不常见，发生率为0.3%-1.3%。乳头肌缺失的发生率尚不清楚。先天性胸静脉系统异常伴乳头肌缺失的情况非常罕见。在对一具55岁男性尸体进行解剖时，发现了乳头肌缺失的PLSVC。尽管这些先天性异常是偶然发现的，但跟随这些患者寻找任何心脏症状的演变是值得的。放射科医生、心胸外科医生和重症监护医生需要对这种先天性畸形有充分的了解和认识。
