Electrocardiography findings and clinical presentation in Ebstein's anomaly

ABSTRACT

Ebstein's anomaly is a congenital malformation characterised by tricuspid valve pathology with right heart enlargement. Cases of Ebstein's anomaly can vary widely in severity, anatomy and presentation. In this article, we presented three cases of Ebstein's anomaly and discussed the presentation as well as electrocardiographic (ECG) changes. Patients may first present to their primary care physicians with cardiac symptoms such as reduced effort tolerance together with an abnormal ECG. ECG changes suggestive of right heart enlargement are important in the initial consideration and eventual formal diagnosis of the condition.
