ABSTRACT

Cor triatriatum is a congenital anomaly in which either the left atrium (Cor triatriatum sinistrum) or the right atrium (Cor triatriatum dextrum) is divided into two compartments by a membrane or a fibromuscular band. The proximal (upper or superior) portion of the corresponding atrium receives venous blood, whereas the distal (lower or inferior) portion is in contact with the atrioventricular valve and contains the atrial appendage and the true atrial septum that bears the fossa ovalis. This anomaly may be associated with major congenital cardiac lesions such as Fallot’s tetralogy, double outlet right ventricle, coarctation of the aorta, partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection, persistent left superior vena cava with unroofed coronary sinus, ventricular septal defect and atrioventricular septal defect. Cor triatriatum in the adult has been reported in association with ostium secundum atrial septal defect. The incidence of Cor triatriatum has been variously reported as 0.1-0.4%. Report of woman 23 years old, with Cor triatriatum associated sinister secundum atrial septal defect and pregnant.
