Abstract

Background: Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) has a rather low incidence (1-3%) of all congenital heart disease.
Intracardiac TAPVR represent 25-30% of all TAPVR.
Aim: To report our results and long-term follow-up of surgical management of intracardiac TAPVR.
Methods: Retrospective study of 7 patients with intra cardiac TAPVR treated surgically between Mai 1992 and July 2007.
Results: The surgical technique has been an intra atrial procedure in all cases. We didn&rsquo
