Аннотация

Persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) is a congenital venous anomaly. It is frequently associated with other cardiac anomalies. The presence of dual superior vena cava is due to the lack of development of the left cardinal vein in utero. The coronary sinus gets dilated as a result of increased blood flow to the right heart and may be seen on echocardiography. This case describes a 50-year-old lady who presented to the emergency department with lightheadedness, nausea, and vomiting for one day, and her electrocardiogram showed a heart rate of 30 beats per minute. A temporary pacemaker was placed. She had a history of asymptomatic PLSVC diagnosed six months ago through percutaneous coronary intervention. A permanent pacemaker was passed through PLSVC to access the right ventricle and she was discharged home after five days of an uneventful hospital course. Clinicians should be aware of this rare congenital anomaly and its potential complications, particularly in patients with unexplained syncope or bradycardia. Further research is needed to better comprehend the clinical presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and management of PLSVC-related cardiac abnormalities.
