✦ Synopsis


Left superior vena cavae draining to the left atrium have traditionally been treated with surgical ligation. Advances in cardiac catheterization have made transcatheter closure a viable alternative to surgery. We report on an innovative method using a Greenfield filter and Gianturco coils for closure of a persistent left superior vena cava.
