Hemolytic anemia: an unusual presentation of cor triatriatum sinistrum.
Cor triatriatum is a congenital malformation of the heart which is usually presented with heart failure. We have dealt with an unusual presentation of a two-month-old child with cor triatriatum presented with hemolytic anemia.

متن کاملAdult Cor Triatriatum Sinistrum as an Unusual Cause of Embolic Stroke
Cor Triatriatum Sinistrum is a congenital anomaly in which the left atrium is divided into 2 parts by a fold of tissue, a membrane, or a fibromuscular band. Classically, the proximal (upper or superior) portion of the left atrium receives the venous blood, whereas the distal (lower or inferior) portion is in contact with the atrioventricular valve and contains the atrial appendage and the true ...
متن کاملCoexistence of Cor triatriatum sinistrum and a prominent Eustachian valve mimicking a Cor triatriatum dextrum
Cor triatriatum is among the rarest of all congenital cardiac abnormalities accounting for 0.1-0.4% of all congenital heart disease. Its coexistence with a very prominent Eustachian valve which mimics a Cor triatriatum dextrum is an exceptionally rare finding in an asymptomatic adult. We report the case of a 44 year old male who presented to our department on observing a pulse rate of 44 beats ...
متن کاملAdult cor triatriatum sinistrum: a rare cause of ischaemic stroke
A 55-year-old male was referred to the cardiologist because of the occurrence of two ischaemic strokes within five months’ time in the absence of documented atrial fibrillation. At echocardiography, a membrane was visualised in the left atrium (cor triatriatum) (Fig. 1a). Since no other abnormalities were detected, the cor triatriatum was held responsible for the cardioembolic stroke. Surgical ...
