Our report emphasizes some observations about Cor Triatriatum Sinister (CTS)
This congenital defect is a condition in which the left atrium is divided into two chambers by a fenestrated fibromuscular septum [1]
Summary
A 52-year-old asymptomatic patient was referred to our Centre after performing a pre surgical ECG for nasal septoplasty. The ECG documented isolated negative T wave in aVL and small r wave in the inferior leads (Figure 1). About 20 years before the patient had a previous retinal arterial thrombosis conditioning partial reduction of the visual field. A 2D transthoracic echocardiography revealed a slight hypertrophy of a left ventricle with preserved systolic function.
