Abstract

Introduction Inferior sinus venosus type atrial septal defect (ASD) is rare and difficult to depict by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) because of its infero-posterior location of the fossa ovalis. So, this defect is frequently missed with conventional TTE views. We report a case of 19-year-old man with inferior sinus venous type ASD from the clue only from slight diastolic flattening of interventricular septum and mild pulmonary hypertension (PH).
