What is Ebstein’s anomaly?

Описание к видео What is Ebstein’s anomaly?

Ebstein’s anomaly is a birth defect of the tricuspid valve, which may manifest soon after birth or more commonly later in life. Tricuspid valve is the valve between the right atrium and right ventricle. Right atrium is the right upper chamber and right ventricle the right lower chamber of the heart. In Ebstein’s anomaly, two of the three leaflets of tricuspid valve are displaced further into the right ventricle. So, a part of the right ventricle becomes part of the right atrium in effect.
