[Thymoma with Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Drainage from the Left Upper Lobe:Report of a Case].
A 73-year-old woman presented with left anterior chest pain and back pain. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed an anterior mediastinal tumor. It also showed partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (left superior pulmonary vein draining into the left brachiocephalic vein), and the tumor was located near the left brachiocephalic vein. The operation was performed through a median sternotomy to resect the thymus and tumor with partial resection of the left upper lobe due to the tumor's adhesion to the left upper lobe. One of the vascular anomalies encountered in adult thoracic surgery is partial anomalous pulmonary venous drainage. It is important to recognize the presence of such an anomaly on imaging and to anticipate the surgical procedure with a preoperative surgical technique.
