We present a 32-year-old patient with cortriatriatum sinister with Raghib's complex (a left persistent superior vena cava draining into the left atrium with an absent coronary sinus and an atrial septal defect [ASD]) who underwent successful surgical correction with excision of the cortriatriatum, closure of the ASD, and establishing the drainage of the persistent left superior vena cava to the right atrium via interposition of an extracardiac 13-mm ringed polytetrafluoroethylene conduit.

Clinical Application of Exercise Stress Echocardiography in an Outpatient Pediatric Population.
J Clin Med
April 2024
Heart Center do Hospital da Cruz Vermelha, 1500-048 Lisboa, Portugal.
Article Synopsis
- Exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) is viable for children, with a 100% success rate in a study involving 309 children aged 6-17.
- Most participants were symptomatic, and a significant number (39%) showed important intraventricular gradients (IVG) during testing.
- While regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMAs) were limited, the findings suggest that ESE can effectively replicate symptoms, especially in those with IVG.
Labyrinthine cor triatriatum sinister in fetal hypoplastic left heart syndrome is associated with poor outcomes.

The Lillie Frank Abercrombie Section of Cardiology, Texas Children's Hospital, Department of Pediatrics, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA.
Objectives: A subset of hypoplastic-left-heart-syndrome (HLHS) fetuses have a complex cor-triatriatum sinister that we named "labyrinthine-cor (L-cor)". We sought to determine the prevalence of L-cor in HLHS fetuses and hypothesized that it is associated with increased mortality.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included all HLHS fetuses from January 2010-December 2020.

Department of Pediatric Cardiology, University of Health Sciences, İstanbul Mehmet Akif Ersoy Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Center, İstanbul, Turkey.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical features of patients with septum primum malposition, imaging tools used for diagnosis, and their effects on the surgical approach.
Materials And Methods: Patients diagnosed with septum primum malposition in our paediatric cardiac centre between 1 January, 2015 and 1 January, 2019 were included in the study. In all patients, the age, reason for admission, transthoracic echocardiography, cardiac multidetector CT angiography findings, and subsequent surgical data were evaluated.

Introduction: Cor triatriatum is a congenital cardiac anomaly in which the left (sinister) or right (dexter) atrium is divided into two compartments by residual embryonic tissue, resulting in a tri-atrial heart. As cor triatriatum dextrum can present clinically in various ways and have multiple associated cardiac anomalies, this report attempts to contribute to what is known about this exceedingly rare disorder.
