Complete atrioventricular septal defect and Ebstein anomaly.

Abstract

The newborn reported here presented with congestive heart failure and cyanosis on the first day of life. Echocardiographic examination revealed complete atrioventricular septal defect and Ebstein anomaly, a rare combination that has not been previously reported in the literature.

Ebstein's anomaly of the tricuspid valve in combination of tetralogy of Fallot: total correction in infancy.

Ebstein's anomaly of the tricuspid valve in combination with Tetralogy of Fallot is extremely rare. We report a patient with these combined entities in a baby presented with cyanosis and right heart failure soon after birth. Total correction toward biventricular repair was successfully conducted when he was 7 months old. For management of a patient with such rare complex anomalies, we recommend Carpentier's technique for Ebstein's anomaly to restore the morphology of the right ventricle, and "one and half ventricle repair" can be a salvage procedure if the right ventricle is not functionally tolerant.
