Confronting perimenopausal women’s knowledge of coronary heart disease with their health behaviours. Controversial role of hormone replacement therapy in the protection of coronary heart disease
Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection of the left upper pulmonary vein with atrial septal defect is quite a rare congenital defect. Standard treatment of this combined defect is cardiopulmonary bypass surgery through a median sternotomy. We describe a hybrid procedure for a 12-year-old female patient where the atrial septal defect was closed percutaneously and anomalous pulmonary venous connection of the left upper pulmonary vein was corrected through a minimal off--pump surgical approach during the same anesthesia.
