A RARE COMBINATION: BIVENTRICULAR NON-COMPACTION, EBSTEIN’S ANOMALY, WOLF PARKINSON WHITE SYNDROME AND MITRAL VALVE PROLAPSUS

Abstract

Ventricular non-compaction and Ebstein’s anomaly are 2 rare congenital abnormalities. In some cases both abnormalities share common genetic predisposition. Both abnormalities could be associated. We report a case of 25-year old male patient with biventricular non-compaction, Ebstein’s anomaly, mitral valve prolapsus and Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome. The combination of these congenital abnormalities could infer a common genetic predisposition with different presentation of myocardium and leaflets.
