RATIONALE Woven coronary artery is an extremely unusual congenital anomaly with unknown etiology. Because of normal flow after anomalous segment, this anomaly is considered to be benign. PATIENT CONCERNS A 51-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with exertional dyspnea that he had experienced for half a year. Woven coronary artery was found in coronary angiography. DIAGNOSES The patien...

Ebstein's anomaly is a rare congenital heart disease characterized by apical displacement of the septal and posterior tricuspid valve leaflets. It is often complicated with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction as well as right-sided abnormalities. On the other hand, in the presence of LV dysfunction, right ventricular pacing is likely to aggravate the diseased LV function, which is termed pacemake...

introduction the pericardial agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly. classified as partial or total being asymptomatic in most cases, but some patients are at risk for serious complications and death, and these have indication for surgical treatment. case presentation this paper describes the case of a 21 year old patient, with atypical precordial pain, diagnosed with agenesis of the left perica...

Objective: The significance of intracardiac echogenic focus (ICEF) in the fetal period is controversial. We conducted current study to determine whether ICEF affects risk cardiac malformation or anomaly fetus.

This study examined the value of echocardiography in diagnosis Ebstein anomaly using data collected from 12 patients with anomaly. These were hospitalized between March 2015 – October 2019 department paediatric cardiac surgery Timofei Moșneaga Republican Clinical Hospital, Chisinau Moldova. Their pre-operative description tricuspid valve and surgeon compared. Results showed that obtained by ver...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether offering cardiac screening to relatives of patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstructions (LVOTOs) would be justified. BACKGROUND LVOTOs have been recognised as a group of congenital heart diseases with 'high heritability'. One of the LVOTOs, the bicuspid aortic valve, is often asymptomatic, but has become known to be associated with sudden, unexpect...

Sudden cardiac arrest in an apparently healthy patient is uncommon and distressing experience for clinicians, a prompt response improves outcome. A previously undiagnosed underlying anomaly places patients at risk of intraoperative critical incidents that could be fatal. We herein report rare case anomalous coronary arteries asymptomatic 25-year- old male who was rescheduled non-cardiac surgery...

Background Diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD) in neonates with extra cardiac anomalies is effective in their clinical management and surgical outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the frequency of CHD in neonates with extra cardiac anomalies admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Material...
