Abstract

Cor triatriatum sinistra (CTS) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. The orifice diameter on the membrane dividing left atria and pulmonary artery pressure are important determinants in the clinical course. Patients usually display symptoms mimicing mitral valve stenosis during young adult. We diagnosed CTS as a structural heart disease in a 17-year old young woman with syncopal attack. We presented this case to point out CTS, which is a rare cause of syncope etiology among structural heart diseases.

Özet

Kor triatriyatum sinistra (KTS) nadir görülen konjental kardiyak anomalidir. Sol atriyumu ikiye ayıran membranda bulunan orifisin çapı ve pulmoner arter basıncı hastaların kliniğinin belirlenmesinde önemli rol oynar. Erişkin dönemde hastalar genellikle mitral darlığı taklit eden semptomlar ile gelebilir. Senkop atakları olan 17 yaşındaki genç kadın hastada yapısal kalp hastalığı olarak KTSnin varlığı saptandı. Sunulan olguda KTSnin, nadir de olsa yapısal kalp hastalığına bağlı senkop etyolojisinde yer alabileceği bildirildi.
