Vora K, Vanani V. Pseudo-cor triatriatum dexter: Rare and asymptomatic but clinical consequences are contemplative. Int J Case Rep Images 2021;12:101213Z01KV2021.ABSTRACT
Introduction: Congenital anatomic variants are more frequent in the right atrium. Complete or incomplete bisection of the right atrium by a membrane-like fold across the cavity is designated as cor triatriatum dexter. Even though most of the cases of congenital atrial remnants are asymptomatic, the clinical consequences in the presence of cardiovascular diseases are very contemplative.
Case Report: We report a case of an elderly patient with acute coronary syndrome and an incidental finding of pseudo-cor triatriatum dexter. Coronary angiography and intervention was done without any complications.
Conclusion: Being an extremely rare entity, a partial form of cor triatriatum dexter is an important congenital anomaly to document on echocardiography, and clinical implications could be correlated by clinicians during the management of multidisciplinary diseases.
Keywords: Acute coronary syndrome, Cardiac catheterization, Pseudo-cor triatriatum
