[Cor triatriatum dextrum].
Cor triatriatum dextrum is a rare malformation of the right atrium usually without typical signs or symptoms. Today the intra vitam diagnosis of C.t.d. is done by echocardiography and angiocardiography. Once the diagnosis is established, surgical correction of this anomaly is possible in symptomatic patients. When the presence of an abnormal membrane in the right atrium is not recognized before operation, the outcome may be unsatisfactory.
