Coarctation Balloon Angioplasty in a Rare Case with Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries and Ebstein’s Anomaly
Abstract
The coexistence of aortic coarctation, Ebstein’s anomaly, and transposition of the great arteries is an extremely rare occurrence. In this case report, we present a unique instance of complex congenital heart disease in a neonate who exhibited respiratory distress and cyanosis at birth. Echocardiography revealed several significant findings: congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, Ebstein’s tricuspid anomaly, moderate-to-severe tricuspid regurgitation, a small muscular ventricular septal defect, and an abnormal left arch with severe coarctation of the aorta. Due to the patient’s unstable hemodynamic status, balloon angioplasty was performed. Subsequent long-term clinical follow-up confirmed the efficacy of this intervention.
