Ebstein's anomaly and gastroesophageal reflux

Area of Science:

• Cardiology
• Gastroenterology

Background:

• Ebstein's anomaly is a rare congenital heart condition.
• Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a common disorder.

Observation:

• This report details two rare cases of Ebstein's anomaly co-occurring with gastroesophageal reflux.
• The presentation and management of these dual conditions were observed.

Findings:

• The co-occurrence of Ebstein's anomaly and gastroesophageal reflux is exceptionally uncommon.
• Clinical observations from these two cases are presented.

Implications:

• Understanding this rare association may improve diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
• Further research into the pathophysiology of this dual diagnosis is warranted.
