Abstract

BACKGROUND: Patients with partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) usually present asymptomatic and accompanied by intricate anatomical types, which results in missed diagnosis from atrial septal defect (ASD). The present study aimed to explore the predictive variables of PAPVC from patients with ASD and constructed an explainable prediction model based on deep learning.
