Background: Ebstein anomaly (EA) is a rare congenital heart defect characterized by apical displacement of the tricuspid valve resulting in tricuspid valve (TV) dysfunction and right ventricular myopathy. Cone reconstruction (CR) has become the standard technique for TV repair for most patients with EA. The impact of additional right-sided obstructive lesions (RSOL) on post-operative outcomes in pediatric patients undergoing CR for EA is unknown. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of all children 1 …
