- Abstract
Scimitar syndrome is a rare congenital cardiac malformation defined as an anomalous pulmonary venous return from the right lung to the inferior vena cava. In adult patients, the surgical strategy chosen is very important because of concomitant diseases and conditions. Herein, we present a case in which a minimally invasive approach was successful for treating a combination of the adult form of the scimitar syndrome and severe degenerative mitral regurgitation.
