Cor Triatriatum Sinister and Persistent Left Cranial Vena Cava in a Kitten

Cor triatriatum sinister.

C triatriatum is a very rare congenital cardiac anomaly with no known associated genetic abnormalities. Cor triatriatum is generally an isolated anomaly but may be associated with anomalous pulmonary venous return in approximately 10% of patients, patent ductus arteriosus, left superior vena cava, ventricular septal defects, Shone syndrome, tricuspid atresia, Ebstein malformation, atrioventricu...

Cor Triatriatum Sinister Presenting in Adulthood

COR TRIATRIATUM is an uncommon congenital cardiac anomaly that is characterized by division of the left atrium into two separate chambers by a fenestrated membrane. This condition typically presents in infancy or early childhood, and can be associated with other cardiac anomalies. A smaller number of adult cases have been reported in the literature. We present the case of a patient with cor tri...

Atrioventricular septal defect with cor triatriatum sinister.

Cor triatriatum (CT) is a rare cardiac anomaly, characterized by a membrane in the left atrium which separates the atrium into the proximal and distal chambers. Association of CT with atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD) is extremely rare; only three cases with complete AVSD and 10 with partial AVSD have been reported. In this study, we present an 11-month-old female infant with complete AVSD...

Unusual Case of Cor Triatriatum Sinister

A 26-year-old man was evaluated for progressive shortness of breath on mild exertion. Physical examination was unremarkable. The electrocardiogram revealed left atrial (LA) enlargement. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) demonstrated normal biventricular size and systolic function with severely dilated LA and no significant valvulopathy. A thin mobi...
