Large Right Ventricle Thrombus in Uhl’s Anomaly: A Rare Presentation of Extremely Rare Disease
Uhl’s anomaly is an extremely rare congenital cardiac malformation and is characterized by the partial or complete absence of right ventricular myocardium. The absence of myocardium may be the result of primary non-development of myocytes or a form of selective apoptosis. It is mainly sporadic altho...

description | Uhl’s anomaly is an extremely rare congenital cardiac malformation and is characterized by the partial or complete absence of right ventricular myocardium. The absence of myocardium may be the result of primary non-development of myocytes or a form of selective apoptosis. It is mainly sporadic although some familial occurrences have been reported. Congestive cardiac failure is the most common mode of presentation. Associated congenital cardiac malformations are also reported. We report a case of a 17-year-old male who presented with symptoms and signs of right heart failure, during evaluation found to have large right ventricle free wall thrombus. |
