Pulmonary stenosis (PS) associated with a huge ostium secundum Atrial septal defect (ASD) is relatively uncommon. In such condition, a significant left-to-right shunt across ASD is prevented by significant obstruction at pulmonary valve level and hence it protects the pulmonary b...

Complex congenital heart disease involving Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries (CCTGA) with dextrocardia presenting with complete heart block (CHB) possess great difficulty in placing permanent pacemaker (PPI). We had a 52 -year-old female admitted with bre...
This report presents a case of a 42-year-old patient diagnosed with ostium secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The patient presented with progressive chest pain and dyspnea and was found to have a lesion in the left main coronary...

Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is present in approximately 20–25% of the general population but is implicated in only a small subset of ischemic strokes, particularly in young adults with cryptogenic events. Stroke in individuals under 45 years accounts for only 10–15% of all ischemi...

Lutembacher’s syndrome (LS) is a very rare condition and is characterized by a congenital ostium secundum type atrial septal defect (OS-ASD) and an acquired mitral stenosis (MS) which is commonly rheumatic in origin, most common in females. Here we report a case of a 35-year-old...
Situs inversus with dextrocardia is a rare congenital disorder. There is a rare coincidence of rheumatic severe mitral stenosis in a patient with situs inversus and dextrocardia. Most of these patients undergo surgery due to technical difficulty, here we report a case of a 41-yea...
