COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY FEATURES OF TOTAL ANOMALOUS PULMONARY VENOUS CONNECTION IN CHILDREN
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: Computed tomography features of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in children. Subjects and methods: 40 patients diagnosed with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection by computed tomography and surgery at the National Children's Hospital from 1/2022 to 4/2025. Results: Male/female = 1.2/1. Newborns account for the highest rate of 52,5%. The most common type of disease is the supracardiac type accounting for 45%, the least common type is the mixed type accounting for 5%. In the diagnosis of the location of the pulmonary vein flow in the subcardiac type, there were 2 cases with pulmonary veins flowing into the portal vein and 9 cases with pulmonary veins flowing into the hepatic vein. 100% of patients were correctly diagnosed occlusion with TAPVC on CLVT. Conclusion: CLVT is a valuable method of diagnosing total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in children.
