Right Ventricle Mimics Right Atrium at First Glance: A Rare Case of Congenital Right Sided Partial Pericardial Defect.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Among heart irregularities, congenital pericardial defect is an unusual anomaly, and is typically left dominant. However, cases of right pericardial defect with heart herniation are extremely rare. This is a case of congenital right pericardial defect with herniation of the right ventricle free wall and right ventricular outflow tract. The patient is asymptomatic and refused further intervention but even indolent discomfort underscores the risks of iatrogenic injuries to the heart and sudden death caused by mechanical pathogenesis due to changes in anatomical positions of the cardiac structures.

Partial right-sided congenital pericardial defect with herniation of right atrium and right ventricle.
In an unusual case of right-sided pericardial defect with herniation of the right atrium and right ventricle, cardiac blood pool isotope imaging is introduced as a new, noninvasive diagnostic procedure. Surgery which consisted of excision of right-sided pericardium relieved the chest pain which was the only symptom the patient had prior to surgery.
متن کاملCONGENITAL PARTIAL PERICARDIAL DEFECT WITH HERNIATION OF THE LEFT ATRIAL APPENDAGE
Congenital defects of the pericardium are considered rare. Until 1979 , the reported cases were only about 200.1 Total absence of the left pericardium is the most common defect2 and less common is a partial defect of the left pericardium. Other types, i.e. isolated right-sided defects, total pericardial absence and diaphragmatic pericardial defects are very rare.3 Before the last decade, t...
متن کاملPartial right-sided pericardial defect associated with congenital aortic valve disease.
Partial right-sided pericardial defect is an extremely rare congenital anomaly and is often associated with other congenital abnormalities. We describe a unique case of congenital aortic valve disease associated with right-sided pericardial defect. The clinical implications are discussed and a review of the literature is presented.
متن کاملSilent Tachypnoea in a Neonate: A Rare Presentation of Right Side Bochdalek Hernia with Intrathoracic Kidney
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a rare condition. The reported incidence of intrathoracic renal ectopia due to CDH is also rare. A right-sided thoracic kidney is much less common due to the location of the liver. Isolated intrathoracic kidney is usually asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally on chest imaging. The authors report on a 21days old female infant with late-presenting right ...
متن کاملRight-sided Infective Endocarditis with Multiple Large Vegetations in a Case of Ventricular Septal Defect: A Case Report
Herein, we present the case of a 10-year-old child suffering from right-sided infective endocarditis with ventricular septal defect. Echocardiography revealed multiple rare large vegetations on the pulmonary valve extending into pulmonary artery along with a large vegetation over the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve.
