Abstract
A young woman with Epstein's anomaly had a large endocardial scar in the atrialised ventricular myocardium. In patients with significant preoperative ventricular scarring, more information is needed to help appropriately manage the risk of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death.
Keywords:
Ebstein’s anomaly; Sudden cardiac death; cone procedure; electrophysiology study; voltage mapping.
