[Surgical methods for correcting partial anomalous drainage of the pulmonary veins during artificial circulation]

The authors share their experiences with surgical treatment of 42 patients with different anatomical variants of the partial anomalous drainage of the pulmonary veins. Specific features of the surgical strategy are described depending on the level of confluence of the pulmonary veins, especially if the mouths of the abnormally falling pulmonary veins and the interatrial septum defect are far from each other. Good immediate and nearest results were obtained.
