    AbstractThe Authors report the causal discovery of isolated persistent left superior vena cava (IPLSVC) during a central venous incannulation with a Groshong's catheter, in a patient undergoing bone marrow transplant. After a short introduction about the IPLSVC ontogenesis, they stress the need for fluoroscopy during the central venous incannulation. The Authors conclude that the possibility of angiocardiography has been very helpful, in this case, for diagnosis and prognosis.
