Prolonged survival in tricuspid atresia with Eisenmenger's physiology.
Survival to adulthood is very rare in tricuspid atresia, particularly in certain subtypes and in the presence of Eisenmenger's physiology. We report a 32-year-old woman who has the type IC variant of tricuspid atresia and who has had documented Eisenmenger's physiology for over 10 years.
