Ebstein’s anomaly is a rare congenital heart defect of the tricuspid valve which accounts for less than 1% of allthe congenital heart diseases (1-3). Ebstein malformation is defined as varying degrees of downward displacementof the septal or posterior leaflets or both of the tricuspid valves into the inlet portion of the right ventricle (RV).Also,the anterior leaflet is enlarged and sail-like, but it has a normal position. Thus, the RV is malformed and dividedinto a proximal thin-walled (atrialized) and a distal thickwalled (ventricularized) (4, 5). Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) isthe most commonly associated anomaly which presents in 80% to 94% of the cases (3, 6).
