Background: Ebstein's anomaly represents 40% of congenital tricuspid valve abnormalities. Studies about paediatric Ebstein's anomaly patients are limited.
Aim: To evaluate clinical characteristics, treatment (medical/arrhythmia ablation/surgical) results, and outcome of Ebstein's anomaly patients, and to determine factors affecting arrhythmia presence and mortality.

Ebstein's anomaly is a rare congenital displacement of the tricuspid valve resulting in atrialization of the right ventricle. About half of the patients with Ebstein's anomaly also have atrial septal defects, which may lead to chronic shunting and development of Eisenmenger syndrome. We describe a case of a sexagenarian male patient with a history of Ebstein's anomaly complicated with Eisenmenger syndrome undergoing robotic laparoscopic adrenalectomy who presented hemodynamic instability, hypoxemia, and likely right-to-left shunting intraoperatively, as well as the actions taken to correct it and have a successful outcome.

Association of Ebstein's anomaly of tricuspid valve (TV) with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is extremely rare. Their coexistence is unique as they modify each other's physiology. We report a case of a girl child having this rare combination along with Diamond-Blackfan syndrome awaiting a bone marrow transplant.

Background: Twin atrioventricular (AV) nodes (TWAVNs) are common in heterotaxy syndrome.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the presence and implications of TWAVNs and accessory pathways in congenital heart diseases (CHDs) with abnormal AV connections.
Methods: A retrospective study of a 1980-2022 cohort with sufficient electrocardiographic (ECG) data for review was conducted.
