Overview of venous drainage
GREAT CARDIAC VEIN The GCV curves to the left as it leaves the anterior interventricular groove, to form the base of the triangle of
‘‘ Brocq and Mouchet ”
Left anterior descending and the left circumflex arteries form other sides.
GCV related internally to the anterolateral commissure of the mitral valve.
The latter part lay in close relationship to the left circumflex artery
After crossing the left circumflex artery, the great cardiac vein ended at the Vieussens valve and continued as the coronary sinus
.
GREAT CARDIAC VEIN
Patent SVGs and a patent LIMA to the 1st diagonal branch of the LAD.
Inadvertent insertion of the LIMA skip graft into the Great cardiac vein, instead of the distal LAD
GREAT CARDIAC VEINIntroducing the cardioplegic solution via the coronary sinus will not perfuse the entire left side of the heart.
Post operatively there will be some myocardial dysfunction due to non perfusion of the area drained by Great cardiac vein.
Since the opening of the great cardiac vein in the right atrium is very close to the interatrial septum it may be mistaken as an atrial septal defect during cardiac catheterization
Selective arterialization of coronary venous system
CVBG – Therapeutic option in patients with diffuse coronary artery disease.
Arterial blood can perform retrograde perfusion through it and nourish ischemic myocardium.
It helps to ensure sufficient blood flow, reduced thrombosis and improved graft patency.
Another reason to select middle cardiac vein for arterialization was that left coronary artery trunk or its branches may lie on the surface of great cardiac vein for nearly 50% patients.
It means that, when coronary atherosclerosis happens, great cardiac vein may be oppressed by sclerotic left coronary artery trunk or its branches,
THEBESIAN VENOUS SYSTEM
In the absence of both LSVC and a Coronary sinus ostium in the left atrium, drainage occurs through enlarged Thebesian veins.
Also, when hypoplastic cardiac veins fail t o join t h e coronary sinus, they empty individually into the atrial chambers through dilated Thebesian channels

TRIANGLE OF KOCHCORONARY SINUS DILATATION
1. Cardiac arrhythmia due to stretching of the
atrioventricular node and bundle of His.
2. Obstruction of the left atrioventricular flow
because of partial occlusion of the mitral valve.
.
CORONARY SINUS
The coronary sinus is defined as the blood conduit that is a continuation of the great cardiac vein from the valve of the great cardiac vein to the ostium of the coronary sinus.
The length varies from 3 to 5.5 cm. CS lies in the sulcus between the left atrium and ventricle
Begins proximally at the right atrial orifice and ends distally at the valve of Vieussen's.
The CS receives blood from the ventricular veins during ventricular systole and empties into the right atrium during atrial systole.
The wall of the CS is made up of striated myocardium that is continuous with the atria, forming a myocardial sleeve around the venous system
The Thebesian valve is a crescent shaped structure often found guarding the mouth of the CS as it opens to the right atrium.
THEBESIAN VALVE
(1) absent, 14.7%; (2) small and crescentric, 38%; (3) large and covering the entire orifice of the coronary sinus, 30.7%; (4) bars and bands, 5.3%; (5) threads and networks, 5.3%; (6) common Eustachian and Thebesian valves,
RETROGRADE CARDIOPLEGIA(1) the provision of a relatively uniform distribution of cardioplegia even in the presence of severe coronary artery disease
2) it is effective in the presence of aortic regurgitation
(3) Redo – CABG antegrade cardioplegia is associated with a high risk of atheromatous embolization from patent grafts
(4) RCP may be an effective method for treating coronary air embolism
(5) it can be given without interrupting the surgical procedure.
Coronary Sinus ANOMALIES An Absent coronary sinus is always associated with a persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) connecting to the left atrium.
A Hypoplastic coronary sinus occurs when one or more of the cardiac veins drain directly into the atria.
Atresia or stenosis of the coronary sinus ostium may occur alone or with associated cardiac anomalies
Enlargement of the coronary sinus can be divided into two groups
- with left to right shunt
- without left to right shunt
Unroofed coronary sinus anomaly
CORONARY SINUS ASD Located – posteriorly and inferiorly in the interatrial septum.
INTERATRIAL SEPTAL TISSUE – separates AV valve annulus.
May be associated SECUNDUM ASD.
CLEFT MITRAL VALVE- confluent PRIMUM ASD
PULMONARY VEINS – enter left atrium more superiorly than usual – when LSVC present with coronary sinus ASD.
Left to right or right to left shunt depending on relative ventricular compliance/ right atrial pressure.

Figure 1. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed both atrial and right ventricular enlargement (left), a defect of the partial coronary sinus (middle), and shunt of the left atrium
to the dilated coronary sinus (right) at the near longitudinal plane.
ROOFING THE CORONARY SINUS
REPAIR OF CORONARY SINUS ASD Goal – separate systemic & pulmonary return
- eliminate shunting at atrial level
Caution – close to conduction system and pulmonary veins.
ROOFING PROCEDURE - BICAVAL VENOUS CANNULATION
- STANDARD RIGHT ATRIOTOMY
IF ATRIAL SEPTUM INTACT- FOSSA OVALIS IS INCISED
UNROOFED CS- MEDIAL TO PULMONARY VEINS
PERICARDIAL PATCH USED TO COVER THE DEFECT
ATRIAL SEPTUM REPAIRED EITHER PRIMARILY OR WITH SECOND PERICARDIAL PATCH
UNROOFED CORONARY SINUS SYNDROME
LSVC to left atrium with coronary sinus ASD
LSVC to left atrium with COMMON ATRIUM
Complete unroofing without LSVC
Partial unroofing –mid portion without LSVC
Partial unroofing –distal portion ,no LSVC
Partial unroofing –distal portion ,intact
corsinus ostium with coronary sinus ASD
LSVCPLSVC, is a result of a residual left anterior cardinal vein.
It occurs in 0.1% to 0.3% of the general population.
PLSVC is 3% to 8%, and up to 40% when such patients have abnormal situs
A PLSVC originates from the junction of the left innominate vein and the left jugular vein.
More than 90% of cases of PLSVC drain through a coronary sinus.
The rest drain into the coronary sinus through a window into the left atrium, directly into the left atrium or into the left pulmonary vein .
In 60% of cases, the innominate vein bridges the two superior venae cavae;
In the other 40%, the cavae drain the right and left brachiocephalic regions separately.
If there is no innominate vein the PLSVC must persist; however, the converse is not true.
A PLSVC with an absent right superior vena cava is found in 14% of cases
Questions to be askedIs there a right superior vena cava?
Is the Innominate vein present
Is the PLSVC associated with any other cardiac malformations?
Where does the PLSVC drain?
And does the surgery involve the right atrium?
LSVC CONNECTIONS
LEFT ATRIUM
CORONARY SINUS WITH OSTIAL ATRESIA
WITHOUT OSTIAL ATRESIA
- INTACT CORONARY SINUS
- UNROOFED CORONARY SINUS
- COMPLETE UNROOFING
- PARTIAL UNROOFING
LSVC with CS Ostial atresia Physiologically benign
Grave hazard- for cardiac surgeon if not identified
Permanent/temporary occlusion or vigorous manipulation – cause myocardial congestion/ischemia
Patency should be sought – preoperatively/intraop
LSVC TO CS WITHOUT ATRESIA If large left innominate vein is present – tourniquet.
Small/absent innominate vein-
Cardiac catheterisation – occlusion pressure less than 18 mm hg- temporarily occluded.
Third angled venous cannula – cannulated directly
When temporarily occlusion not advisable
Flexible venous cannula retrograde through CS
Use of cardiotomy sucker.
Single right atrial venous cannula + profound hypothermia and total circulatory arrest
LSVC TO LA without CS LSVC can be ligated below innominate vein.
LSVC to RIGHT ATRIUM
- direct implantation
- left atrial tubular flap creation
- right atrial tubular extension
- PTFE graft
limitation – stenosis /occlusion of rerouted LSVC
COMMON ATRIUM Repositioning the ATRIAL SEPTUM
-- Interatrial septum- completely excised
-- autologous pericardium/ prosthetic patch used
Goal – systemic venous orifice lie on right side
- pulmonary venous orifice lie on left side
- optimal baffle placement
Biderectional Cavopulmonary connection
Extracardiac repair
LSVC detached from heart – cardiac end oversewn
LSVC sutured to superior aspect of –
LEFT PULMONARY ARTERY
Avoids complication like-
baffle leaks/baffle stenosis /atrial arrythmia
ATRIAL ISOMERISM When b/l morphologically Right atria present
Lsvc enters the left sided Right atrium
Not an example of Unroofed coronary sinus.
Right isomerism – CS usually absent
Minor venous channel open directly into RA/RV
RAGHIB SYNDROME INCLUDES – LSVC to left atrium
- Absence of coronary sinus
- Low lying ASD
Simple closure – Persistent desaturation
Correction - ASD repair + ligation of LSVC
- Excision of septum primum
- Placement of intra atrial baffle
HEART LUNG TRANSPLANT Recipient LSVC is divided near its entrance into left atrium during recipient cardiectomy
It is sutured end to end to donor left inominate vein
SUPERIOR ROOFING – defect made in interatrial septum
Superior wall of left atrium is used to make left atrial tunnel from LSVC orifice to interatrial defect
Cor Triatriatum Pathogenesis - Impingement of a left superior vena cava on the developing left atrium.
Left and right pulmonary veins may enter the left atrium more superior than usual.
Mild to moderate narrowing- left atrium to which pulmonary veins are attached.
Partially unroofed CS condition can be easily overlooked
suspicious- when no asd or pulmonary vein anomaly seen in RA with documented oxygen step up
Diagnosis – pass a probe in CS orifice
- View defect through separate incision in interatrial septum
FONTAN REPAIR - When it co exists with tricuspid atresia – marked RIGHT to left shunt that incorporates coronary sinus into systemic venous pathway.
RECENT ADVANCESClinical trials investigating treatment with angiogenesis factors and gene therapy have been
goin on
New devices for creating cardiac arteriovenous fistulas percutaneously have been deviced
Radionuclide cardioangiography.
Three different systems of percutaneous mitral annuloplasty are currently under evaluation: the Edwards Monarc system, the Carillon Mitral Contour System and the PTMA implant system.
They are inserted into the coronary sinus and the great cardiac vein and all
work on the same principle: they shrink the mitral annulus, increasing leaflet coaptation and thus reducing the regurgitation .
Take home messageIndications of selective CVBG include the patients with tenuous right coronary artery or with diffuse lesions. It is fit for the patients who need secondary CABG operation.
Partially unroofed coronary sinus should not be over looked
Close relation between LAD and GCV should be kept in mind.
Eyes see what the mind knows!!
