ABSTRACT

Multimodal imaging diagnosis of congenital heart diseases. A case report

Implementation of multimodal imaging techniques in the study of congenital heart disease makes it possible to overcome the disadvantages of one with the scope of the other. We present a case of a patient with persistent left vena cava draining to the left atrium, pseudocoarctation of the aorta and bicuspid aortic valve, whose approach required the implementation of several imaging modalities to establish the diagnosis and define its follow-up.

Key words: congenital heart disease; persistent left superior vena cava; multimodal imaging; echocardiography.
