Abstract

Ebstein’s malformation is an uncommon congenital heart disease with great variability in the morphology of the tricuspid valve. Its prevalence is 0.3% to 0.5% and less than 10% cases are associated with severe tricuspid valve stenosis. Patients with Ebstein’s anomaly have 10% incidence of pre-excitation. We hereby report a similar case of Ebstein’s anomaly with asymptomatic cardiac status presenting for the first time at adult age with embolic stroke as a result of paradoxical embolism via ostium secundum atrial septal defect secondary to left leg deep vein thrombosis with pre-excitation syndrome on ECG.
