Abstract

Uhl’s anomaly (UA) is a rare congenital malformation described as the partial or complete absence of the myocardium of the right ventricle. UA is commonly confused with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia or Ebstein’s anomaly. Cardiac magne- tic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard diagnostic tech- nique for the differential diagnosis of UA. Here, we report a rare case of UA which had been misdiagnosed as Ebstein’s anomaly in a 62-year-old female.

Özet

Uhl’s Anomalisi (UA) sağ ventrikülde parsiyel ya da total miyo- kard yokluğu ile tanımlanan nadir bir konjenital malformasyon- dur. UA sıklıkla aritmojenik sağ ventrikül displazisi veya Ebstein’s anomalisi ile karıştırılır. UA’nın ayırıcı tanısında kardiyak magne- tik rezonans görüntüleme, altın standart tanı tekniğidir. Burada nadir olarak 62 yaşında Ebstein’s anomalisi yanlış tanısı almış bir UA olgusunu sunacağız.
