One year old patient was referred to our clinic with the diagnosis of total anomalous venous connection. Despite tachycardia and pulmonary plethora, the patient was acyanotic and the transthoracic echocardiography detected pulmonary venous baffle or vertical vein. Considering these doubtful findings, computed tomography angiography was performed and revealed that right pulmonary veins was draining towards an enlarged vena cava superior while right pulmonary veins into the left atrium. Furthermore, a fibrotic tissue that encurtains the mitral orifice was observed.
