- Abstract
Cor triatriatum sinistra (CTS) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. The orifice diameter on the membrane dividing left atria and pulmonary artery pressure are important determinants in the clinical course. Patients usually display symptoms mimicing mitral valve stenosis during young adult. We diagnosed CTS as a structural heart disease in a 17-year old young woman with syncopal attack. We presented this case to point out CTS, which is a rare cause of syncope etiology among structural heart diseases.
