A 57-year-old female patient with a family history of coronary artery disease admitted to our hospital for the coronary check-up. A coronary angiography was performed with ECG-gated 128 slice dual source computed tomography. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) showed, in addition to the normal coronary arteries, a persistent levoatrial cardinal vein (LCV) draining into vena cava superior. ECG-gated cardiac MDCT is a useful tool showing the origin, course, and drainage site of LCV. (Folia Morphol 2013; 72, 3: 274–277)

Background: Congenital heart diseases (CHD) are the leading cause of birth defect-related deaths. Multidedector computed tomography (MDCT) plays an important role for imaging CHD in addition to echocardiography and provides a comprehensive evaluation of complex heart malformations for the referring cardiologist. The aim of the study was to evaluate the utility of MDCT in the assessment of CHD. Materials and methods: A 102 patients with CHD were investigated after initial assessment by echocardiography. The information obtained by MDCT and findings of echocardiography were reviewed together by paediatric cardiologists and cardiac radiologists. Perioperative anatomic descriptions, wherever available (n = 34) formed the gold standard for the comparison. Results: The clinical consensus diagnosis defined 154 cardiovascular lesions in the patients. The results were classified in groups. We present the appearance of various congenital cardiac lesions seen in clinical practice. Conclusions: MDCT provides important information about anatomic details of CHD for the referring cardiologist. The evaluation of different anatomic structures such as heart, great vessels, lungs and abdomen is possible in one acquisition with this technique. (Folia Morphol 2013; 72, 3: 188–196)
