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

2018 
: 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.
