    Summary

    This study reports three rare cases of mitral stenosis combined with abnormal pulmonary venous return without an atrial septal defect. Diagnosis is confirmed via chest X-ray and hemodynamic investigation, guiding surgical intervention when necessary.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Thoracic Surgery
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Mitral stenosis (MS) is a narrowing of the mitral valve.
    • Abnormal pulmonary venous return (APVR) involves incorrect routing of oxygenated blood from the lungs.
    • Atrial septal defects (ASDs) are common congenital heart abnormalities.

    Observation:

    • This report details three rare cases of MS co-occurring with APVR.
    • Crucially, these cases presented without an atrial septal defect.
    • Chest X-ray findings suggested the combined diagnosis.

    Findings:

    • Hemodynamic investigation confirmed the APVR and quantified the left-to-right shunt.
    • The severity of mitral stenosis was accurately assessed.
    • This diagnostic approach is vital for understanding the complex pathophysiology.

    Implications:

    • Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective management.
    • Surgical intervention is indicated for poorly tolerated defects.
    • Understanding this rare association aids in refining treatment strategies for complex congenital heart disease.
