LEFT PARTIAL ANOMALOUS PULMONARY VENOUS RETURN SURGERY PHOTOS
My daughter gave me permission to post these photos of her open heart surgery. We hope that these photos will help others to better understand left partial pulmonary venous return.
These pictures were given to me by her Mayo Clinic Cardiac Surgeon, Dr. Dearani.
Dr. Dearani is an incredible surgeon who saved my daughter's life. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Dearani and the Mayo Clinic.
The above is a photo of my daughter's left partial pulmonary venous return. The large dark vein in the center of the picture should not be attached there. You can read about my daughter open heart surgery on this HypoGal Blog post.
