Two cyanotic patients had venoarterial shunting from the inferior vena cava
to the left atrium in an uncomplicated atrial septal defect with normal
right ventricular pressures. Cyanosis was due to a large, anomalous
inferior vena caval valve, the eustachian valve. The mechanism of cyanosis
and technical problems for surgical repair are discussed.
