Uncommon manifestation of Ebstein anomaly: A case report of apical displacement involving all tricuspid valve leaflets.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Key Clinical Message: This case report presents an uncommon variant of Ebstein anomaly, where all three tricuspid valve leaflets exhibited apical displacement-a rare finding. It illustrates the complexities in diagnosing and managing such atypical presentations, with successful surgical correction through annuloplasty. The report adds valuable insights to the limited literature on this congenital heart disease. Abstract: Ebstein anomaly (EA), a rare congenital heart disorder, presents with diverse clinical spectrums. This case report explores a distinctive manifestation of EA, where all three tricuspid valve (TV) leaflets exhibited apical displacement, highlighting a novel aspect in the presentation of this condition. A 44-year-old woman, under long-term medical surveillance for EA, showcased an atypical clinical trajectory marked by the apical displacement of all TV leaflets, which is uncommon in EA. Despite a predominantly asymptomatic course, recent exacerbation of symptoms prompted further evaluation. Diagnostic modalities, including echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, revealed severe tricuspid regurgitation concomitant with unprecedented apical displacement of the anterior, septal, and posterior tricuspid leaflets. The displacement of the anterior leaflet was contrary to typical embryonic valvular formation expectations, indicating a unique presentation within EA. The patient underwent annuloplasty surgery, which successfully rectified the anomalous TV architecture. Postoperative evaluation demonstrated mild residual tricuspid regurgitation, and the patient was discharged in stable condition. This case underscores the variability in EA presentations and accentuates the significance of tailored surgical interventions. The observation of apical displacement involving all TV leaflets adds a unique dimension to the existing EA literature, reinforcing the need for careful diagnosis and personalized treatment approaches.
