ABSTRACT
An infant with Down’s syndrome was referred to our department
with cyanosis and heart murmur. A transthoracic
echocardiogram demonstrated the presence of Ebstein’s
anomaly. This association is extremely unusual. Medical
management was initiated since the tricuspid valve lesion
was mild. Only twelve cases, to our knowledge, have been
previously reported.
