Ebstein's anomaly is a congenital heart defect in which the septal and posterior leaflets of the tricuspid valve are displaced downwards towards the apex of the right ventricle of the heart. [1] EA has great anatomical heterogeneity that generates a wide spectrum of clinical features at presentation and is complicated by the fact that the ...
English: 12-lead ECG of a woman with Ebstein's anomaly (a congenital heart defect in which the opening of the tricuspid valve is displaced towards the apex of the right ventricle of the heart, resulting in a large right atrium). The ECG shows signs of right atrial enlargement, best seen in V1.
English: 9-year-old girl with Ebstein's anomaly and Mahaim accessory pathway. ECGs recorded during sinus rhythm showing minimal pre-excitation, and during tachycardia (antedromic AVRT) showing maximal pre-excitation with LBBB morphology
Congenital heart anomaly, congenital heart disease: The normal structure of the heart (left) in comparison to two common locations for a ventricular septal defect (right), the most common form of congenital heart defect [1] Specialty: Cardiology: Symptoms: Rapid breathing, bluish skin, poor weight gain, feeling tired [2] Complications: Heart ...
People with WPW may have more than one accessory pathway – in some cases, as many as eight abnormal pathways have been found. This has been seen in individuals with Ebstein's anomaly. [14] Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome is sometimes associated with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy, a form of mitochondrial disease. [15]

Ebstein also published works in regards to medical illness of prominent Germans in history, such as Martin Luther and Arthur Schopenhauer. [4] His name was attached to the eponymous Ebstein's anomaly (a rare congenital heart defect) [10] and Pel–Ebstein fever (a remittent fever associated with Hodgkin's disease). [11]
The majority of cases can be diagnosed prenatally during a routine anomaly scan. If evidence of a congenital heart disease is found, the diagnosis can be confirmed by a foetal echocardiogram . If it is not diagnosed prenatally, it may be diagnosed shortly after birth with physical examination, which would reveal cyanosis and murmur.
