Cor Triatriatum Sinister Presenting in Adulthood

چکیده
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 triatriatum sinister and an associated atrial septal defect who presented in adulthood, along with a comprehensive review of the literature with a focus on adult patients.
