A very small sinus venosus type of atrial septal defect: A rare but curable cause of recurrent stroke

초록

Sinus venosus is a rare cardiac defect, which may lead to an interatrial shunt. Diagnosis on echocardiography may be difficult requiring an evaluation by a board-certified cardiologist. We report a case of a 41 year-old male who presented with recurrent episodes of hemiparesis (first left sided, second right sided). Surgical correction of sinus venosus led to resolution of his symptoms.
