Fig 1 Three-dimensional reconstructed vessels and bronchial tree using chest computed tomography. (A) In case 3, the right top PV (arrows) drained directly into the left atrium. (B) In case 5, the anomalous pulmonary vein (PV) (arrows) originating from the upper and lower lobes passed behind both the intermediate and main bronchi, and drained into the superior PV.
