A 5-month-old female presented in our hospital with cyanosis, peripheral psychroesthesia, and significantly lower blood pressure of lower limbs compared with the upper limbs; suggesting aortic coarctation. The presence of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC) was suspected by echocardiogram. Before surgery, we performed multislice computed tomography to determine the spatial relationship between the site of aortic coarctation, PDA, and PLSVC. Although contrast material was injected from the right cubital vein, PLSVC was exclusively enhanced; therefore, deficiency of right superior vena cava was diagnosed. Coarctation of the DAo was observed in the right posterior direction of PLSVC and PDA was observed just distal to the coarctation site of the DAo and located at the right posterior direction of PLSVC. Therefore, the spatial relationship of PLSVC, coarctation of DAo and PDA could be evaluated and a direct anastomosis of the DAo and ligation of PDA were performed.
