TEACHING POINTS

1. Anomalous pulmonary venous connections are rare anomalies of pulmonary venous drainage which includes partial and total anomalous pulmonary venous connection. 2. If the common pulmonary vein fails to connect to the splanchnic plexus and / or a splanchnic plexus communication with a cardinal or umbilicovitelline vein persists, some type of TAPVC or PAPVC will occur. 3. Clinical presentation varies from asymptomatic to incompatibity with life. 4. Proper knowledge about anomalies, imaging technique and what a surgeon needs from a radiologist can improve the outcome.
