On the mediastinal window, we discovered an situs ambiguous with a mesocardia, a medial liver, a spleen replaced by several right splenic nodules and a right stomach (Figure 1); with left isomerism: both atria were of left morphology and a hyparterial bronchi (Figure 2).

In addition to that, we found associated anomalies of venous return such as the azygos continuation of the inferior vena cava, which was agenesic in its retro-hepatic part, with hepatic veins flowing directly into the patient's right atrium (Figures 3 and 4).
11-month-old male infant with polysplenia syndrome operated for common
atrioventricular canal.. Findings: Sagittal section reconstruction of an injected thoracic CT scan
showing agenesis of the inferior vena cava with a suprahepatic vein (c)
draining directly into the right atrium (d).. Technique: Philips, 23 mL IV ultravist 300, kV 110, mA 93.

11-month-old male infant with polysplenia syndrome operated for common
atrioventricular canal.. Findings: Thoracic CT scan in injected axial section showing ascending (e)
and descending (f) aorta in place with venous return anomaly such as azygos
substitution (g) of the inferior vena cava with the superior vena cava which
is left (h).. Technique: Philips, 23 mL IV ultravist 300, kV 110, mA 93.

Moreover, the superior vena cava was located on the left (Figure 5) receiving both the azygos vein (Figures 6 and 7) and the innominate trunk on the left. While the ascending and descending aortas were in place (Figure 5).
