Cor triatriatum sinistrum, aortic coarctation and bicuspid aortic stenosis in an adult.
Cardiac anomalies are usually diagnosed early in life, which is particularly true for their various combinations. The diagnosis in adulthood is rare. Here we report the case of a young man with an aortic coarctation corrected at the age of 16, however the associated stenotic bicuspid aortic valve and cor triatriatum sinistrum were corrected after Streptococcus viridans endocarditis 7 years later.
