[Total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage below the diaphragm. Report of three cases and semiologic considerations
Abstract:
Clinical, hemodynamic and pathologic findings of three patients with total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage to the portal vein system are presented. Some of the findings are emphasized because of its rarity in previous reports. These are: 1) Cyanosis was mild. 2) There was some obstruction of the foramen ovale, besides the obstruction at the portal system level. In two patients gastrointestinal bleeding and analitical evidence of renal failure, were found, both findings not previously reported to our knowledge.

Overview of Systemic Veins
The coronary sinus, the heart's principal vein, resides in the coronary sulcus on the heart's posterior aspect. This broad venous channel receives nearly all venous blood from the myocardium, the heart muscle. It is fed by three primary veins: the great cardiac vein, the middle...
Veins of Thorax
The azygos vein, positioned just right of the midline and anterior to the vertebral column, begins at the junction of the right ascending lumbar and subcostal veins, terminating in the superior vena cava. This vein drains blood from the right side of the thoracic wall, thoracic viscera, and posterior abdominal wall.
