Core Tip |
Unroofed coronary sinus syndrome (UCSS) is difficult to diagnose. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) of a 37-year-old female revealed ostium primum atrial septal defect (ASD). A second TTE showed type IV UCSS with secundum ASD. Right-heart contrast echocardiography (RHCE) confirmed UCSS and ASD with no persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC). The patient was misdiagnosed because the defect location was near the endocardial cushions, which was mistaken for a defect of the ostium primum atrial septum. This case highlights the special value of TTE and RHCE for a rare case of type IV UCSS combined with ASD but without PLSVC. |
