This paper reports a rare case of Shone complex with unusual vascular anomalies, highlighting the need for thorough clinical evaluation.

Contribution

The novelty lies in describing an incomplete Shone complex with a persistent left and absent right superior vena cava.

Findings

The case involved incomplete Shone complex with multiple left heart obstructions.

A persistent left superior vena cava and absent right superior vena cava were identified as additional anomalies.

Comprehensive clinical workup was essential for accurate diagnosis and surgical planning.
