Coding Notes

Unless the code for absent right superior caval vein is used, this term assumes that a right superior caval vein is present and, therefore, there are bilateral superior caval veins with or without a bridging vein. This term should not be used in the presence of situs inversus of the atria where this is the expected arrangement.
