Cor Triatriatum Sinister

We describe a patient with concordant ventriculoarterial connections with parallel arterial trunks, divided left atrium (cor triatriatum sinister), ventricular septal defect, bilateral superior caval veins, and juxtaposed atrial appendages. The aorta was anterior and left sided. We discuss the morphological features of this rare condition, and the diagnostic dilemma it produced.

SummaryCor triatriatum sinister is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly that has been identified in 0.1% of children with congenital heart disease. It is defined as a fibromuscular membrane that divides the left atrium into two chambers: a superior (proximal) that in most cases receives drainage from the pulmonary veins and an inferior (distal) chamber that communicates with the mitral valve and the left atrium. Cor triatriatum sinister can be an isolated lesion (approximately 25% of cases), but in many cases it is associated with other congenital cardiovascular anomalies, the most common one being – atrial septal defect(3). Symptoms in patients with cor triatriatum sinister are related to obstruction of pulmonary venous drainage, pressure loading of the right side of the heart and congestive cardiac failure. Depending on the severity of the obstruction and presence of associated cardiac anomalies it can be diagnosed at any age. Diagnosis is usually achieved by echocardiography in early infancy. Elective treatment method is surgical excision of the membrane. Here we present a pediatric patient (4 months old) presenting in cardiogenic shock with a successful correction of isolated cor triatriatum sinister. To confirm diagnosis and success of surgical repair, transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography were used.

Unusual Association

SummaryWe describe the unusual association of a divided left atrium (cor triatriatum) with an atrioventricular septal defect with separate atrioventricular orifices in an eight-year-old asymptomatic girl. The diagnosis had been made by cross-sectional echocardiography combined with Doppler technology and color-flow mapping. These methods together demonstrate both the anatomic and hemodynamic findings.

Surgical System

Cor triatriatum sinister (CTS) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly and is mainly corrected through conventional surgery through sternotomy. We described our successful novel surgical technique of totally robotic correction of CTS in one case of CTS with concomitant repair of atrial septal defect using da Vinci SI Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical, Inc, Sunnyvale, CA USA) with excellent surgical outcome. We conclude that robotic correction of CTS is a feasible and safe alternative to conventional surgical technique.
