Two girls, aged 14 and 11 years, with Ebstein's anomaly, were treated by simple posterior annular plication of the functional annulus, without plication of the atrialized right ventricle. At follow-up after 15 and 12 months, both patients were in functional class I with no tricuspid regurgitation on echocardiography. This technique looks simple, safe, and effective, particularly for mild forms of Ebstein's anomaly, but the longevity of this repair remains to be determined.
两名分别为14岁和11岁的患有埃布斯坦畸形的女孩，接受了功能性瓣环单纯后瓣环折叠术治疗，未对房化右心室进行折叠。在15个月和12个月的随访中，两名患者的心功能均为I级，超声心动图显示无三尖瓣反流。这项技术看起来简单、安全且有效，尤其适用于轻度埃布斯坦畸形，但这种修复的长期效果仍有待确定。
