Pulmonary veins converge to form a left vertical vein which drains to SVC, consistent with supracardiac type total anomalous pulmonary venous return.
Case Discussion
Supracardiac type total anomalous pulmonary venous return is the most common type (>50%), at which anomalous pulmonary veins terminate at the supracardiac level, either at brachiocephalic vein, SVC, or azygous vein.
