Cardiac diverticula are rare congenital anomalies. Among them, right ventricular diverticula are far fewer than left ventricular diverticula. Herein, we write to share an exceedingly rare case of a special right ventricular diverticulum connecting to left ventricle through a tunnel-like structure originating from the membranous ventricular septum. Surgical closure of the origin of the connecting tunnel was performed, while the right ventricular diverticulum was preserved. Postoperative recovering was uneventful.
心脏憩室是罕见的先天性畸形。其中,右心室憩室远比左心室憩室少见。在此,我们撰文分享一个极其罕见的病例,一个特殊的右心室憩室通过起源于膜部室间隔的管状结构与左心室相连。我们对连接隧道的起源进行了手术闭合,同时保留了右心室憩室。术后恢复顺利。
