Abstract
Ebstein’s anomaly is an infrequent but fascinating congenital heart disorder accounting for <1% of all congenital heart disease. Since its depiction in 1866, dramatic developments in diagnosis and treatment have been made.
Ebstein’s anomaly is a complex congenital disorder with a broad pathologic-anatomical and also clinical spectrum and no two patients are identical. So, precise knowledge of the different anatomic and hemodynamic variables, related malformations and management choices are essential. Managing Ebstein’s anomaly patients is so complex. Thus, it is important that these patients are frequently seen by a cardiologist with expertise in congenital heart disease.
Here in we present a 24-year-old woman referred to our center due to frequent episodes of sudden-onset palpitation. He had a history of unknown congenital heart disease.
