Abstract
|
|
|
Ebstein's anomaly is characterized by a downward displacement of a malformed tricuspid valve. The ideal surgical management of Ebstein's anomaly is not yet established. Recently we experience one case of Ebstein's anomaly, Which was treated
sussessfully
by partial artificial annulus formation, and tricuspid valve replacement with St. Jude Medical valve. We have achieved excellent results with mechanical valve replacement and partial artificial annulus formation using wessex pericardial patch.
On follow up for 4 years, the patient is well and in functional class I.
