Ebstein anomaly: report of a familial occurrence and prenatal diagnosis.
The Ebstein anomaly is a rare congenital heart disease involving the position and structure of the tricuspid valve. Although most cases are sporadic, familial occurrence has been documented. We report on 2 sisters, born to consanguineous parents, who were diagnosed prenatally with severe Ebstein anomaly.
