Agitated saline contrast echocardiography reveals a systemic‐to‐pulmonary venous shunt

摘要

Contrast echocardiography with agitated saline is used to assess mainly the existence of interatrial communication. We report a case of a 26‐year‐old woman, with a “port‐a‐cath” central venous line, who had an unusual finding in agitated saline contrast echocardiography. Multimodality imaging revealed occlusion of superior vena cava and a systemic‐to‐pulmonary venous shunt.
