Özet

Polysplenia/heterotaxy syndrome is a rare condition involving multiple gastrointestinal, vascular, and cardiac malformations. We present a previously unreported association of aortic coarctation, double superior vena cava, a left-hand side inferior vena cava with hemiazygos vein continuation and a right retroaortic renal vein with polysplenia/heterotaxy syndrome. Multidetector computed tomography with multiplanar reconstruction images were useful in the detection of these abnormalities.
