SummaryThe present report describes a rare case of triatrial heart, cor triatriatum dextrum in a 31-year-old woman in whom the anomaly was incidentally detected by radionuclide angiocardiography. Subsequent assessment with two-dimensional echocardiography and right heart catheterization confirmed the presence of a membrane subdividing the right atrium into two distinct chambers. To the best of our knowledge, this is the only case in which this cardiac anomaly was demonstrated by radionuclide technique.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
