Imaging features of aorto-right atrial tunnel: a report of two cases
Abstract
Aorto-right atrial tunnel is a rare congenital anomaly with very few cases described in the literature. It has been classified into anterior and posterior types and we present two operated cases, one of each type. The radiologic, echocardiographic, and angiographic features of the condition are highlighted.
