AbstractWe report the case of a child with cor triatriatum dexter masquerading as Ebstein's anomaly on transthoracic echocardiography. This was attributed to a floppy membrane arising from the right atrium, protruding into the tricuspid valve and pushing the leaflets downwards, giving an impression of Ebstein's anomaly. The importance of recognising this pitfall will prevent misdiagnosis of Ebstein's anomaly.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Nil A 43-year old lady complained of dyspnoea with elevated jugular venous pressure. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed massive pericardial effusion [Figure 1A] with a huge heterogeneous mass (5x9cm) attached to right atrial free wall [Figure 1B]. Therapeutic pericardiocentesis yielded blood-stained pericardial fluid with negative for tumour cells. Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) was performed under transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and fluoroscopy guidance. Right after procedure, there was a significant desaturation which could not be reversed by high flow oxygen supplement. The acute hypoxaemia was secondary to right-to-left shunt through a wide-open patent foramen ovale (PFO) as shown by transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) [Figure 2A-D]. Transcatheter PFO closure was performed under TOE guidance with immediate correction of hypoxemia. [Figure 3]. Subsequent Computer Tomography demonstrated a large vascular mass at right atrium abutted onto the basal right ventricle and tricuspid valve [Figure 4] without evidence of tumor embolism. The histological diagnosis confirmed it was a cardiac sarcoma. Given the infiltrative nature of cardiac sarcoma with significant right ventricular (RV) inflow obstruction, a debulking surgery was done rather than a complete curative resection. She was referred to oncologist for adjuvant chemotherapy. We postulated that there is a shift in tumour location, i.e. more towards the tricuspid valve orifice which results in elevated right ventricular inflow obstruction which triggers the acute right-to-left shunting through PFO.
