Non-obstructive membrane of left atrial appendage orifice: first paediatric report
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 May 2020
Abstract
Left atrial appendage membrane is a rare anomaly. Its implications on clinical course are unknown. We report the first paediatric case in association with a congenital heart disease.
