Warden procedure is a popular technique for repairing partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection. We describe a modification of this technique for surgical repair of this condition by raising both a superior vena cava (SVC) flap and right atrial appendage flap to create a tension-free SVC-RA continuity (neo-SVC). The anomalous pulmonary veins are routed via the remanent of proximal SVC and baffled to the left atrium across a surgically created or enlarged atrial septal defect using autologous pericardium.
