This case report details a rare congenital heart anomaly, cor triatriatum sinistrum, found incidentally in a 50-year-old man. The condition was nonobstructive and discovered during evaluation for essential hypertension.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Congenital Heart Disease
  • Cardiac Surgery

Background:

  • Cor triatriatum sinistrum is a rare congenital heart anomaly.
  • It involves a variable degree of obstruction within the left atrium.
  • Isolated nonobstructive forms are exceptionally uncommon.

Observation:

  • A 50-year-old male patient presented for evaluation of essential hypertension.
  • Diagnostic workup revealed an incidental finding of isolated nonobstructive cor triatriatum sinistrum.
  • No symptoms directly attributable to the cardiac anomaly were reported.

Findings:

  • The patient was diagnosed with an isolated, nonobstructive variant of cor triatriatum sinistrum.
  • This anatomical finding was discovered incidentally and not the primary reason for medical consultation.

  • Essential hypertension was the presenting clinical concern.

    • Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of thorough cardiac evaluation even in asymptomatic individuals.
    • Underscores the variability in presentation of congenital heart anomalies.
    • Relevant for cardiologists and cardiac surgeons managing complex congenital heart disease.
