Article Abstract
Ebstein anomaly is the most common form of tricuspid valve congenital anomalies. The tricuspid valve is abnormal with different degrees of displacement of the septal leaflet and abnormal rotation of the valve towards the right ventricular outflow tract. In severe forms, it results in significant tricuspid regurgitation and requires surgical repair. There is an increased interest in understanding the anatomy of the tricuspid valve in this lesion as the surgical repair has evolved with the invention and wide adoption of the cone operation. Multimodality imaging plays an important role in diagnosis, follow-up, surgical planning and post-operative care. This review provides anatomical tips for the cardiac imagers caring for patients with Ebstein anomaly and will help provide image-based personalized medicine.

Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) can lead to significant enlargement of the right atrium (RA) and poses unique clinical challenges. We report this case of a 17-year-old boy previously misdiagnosed with Ebstein anomaly who presented with dyspnea and palpitations. Initial examination revealed irregular heart rhythm, distended neck veins, and a significant murmur.

Ebstein's anomaly (EA) is a rare congenital defect of the tricuspid valve (TV), typically characterized by downward displacement of the septal and posterior leaflets into the right ventricle, resulting in tricuspid regurgitation (TR), right heart enlargement, and heart failure. While surgical outcomes for EA have improved significantly in pediatric and young adult populations, data on surgical intervention in elderly patients remain limited. Elderly patients often present with comorbidities and diminished physiological reserve, which complicate both surgical decision-making and perioperative management.
