Anaesthetic Management of Ebstein Anomaly in a Patient with Cleft Palate

Abstract

Ebstein anomaly is a challenge to the anaesthetist in terms of large right atrium, atrialised right ventricle and various valve abnormalities associated with it like Tricuspid Regurgitation(TR), Mitral Stenosis(MS), Mitral Regurgitation(MR).
In this case study, we report a 14-year-old female child presented with ebstein anomaly and cleft palate in our institution, SMS medical college & hospitals, Jaipur, Rajasthan. Cone’s operation was planned but due to multiple fenestrations in tricuspid leaflet only tricuspid and mitral valves were replaced. Patient was extubated next day with uneventful recovery.
