Unroofed coronary sinus newly diagnosed in adult patients after corrected congenital heart disease

Neth Heart J. 2014 May;22(5):240-5. doi: 10.1007/s12471-014-0533-0.

Abstract

Patients with congenital heart disease corrected in early childhood may later in life present with cardiac symptoms caused by other associated congenital anomalies that were initially not diagnosed. Nowadays, several noninvasive imaging modalities are available for the visualisation of cardiac anatomy in great detail. We describe two patients with an unroofed coronary sinus, a rare congenital anomaly which could be diagnosed using a combination of modalities including echocardiography, cardiac CT and cardiac MRI.
