A 38-year-old female underwent septal closure for a large ostium secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) as she had progressive dyspnea. She was also found to have primary amenorrhea, for which she was evaluated. The clinical examination and investigations revealed a female phenotype and a male karyotype (46 XY). She was diagnosed with Swyer syndrome and subsequently started on hormone replacement therapy. This case highlights the presence of congenital heart disease and large ostium secundum ASD with left to right shunt in patients with Swyer syndrome, which has not been reported in the literature.
一名38岁女性因进行性呼吸困难接受了大型继发孔房间隔缺损(ASD)的间隔封堵术。她还被发现患有原发性闭经,并因此接受了评估。临床检查和调查显示为女性表型和男性核型(46 XY)。她被诊断为斯维尔综合征,随后开始接受激素替代疗法。该病例突出了斯维尔综合征患者中存在先天性心脏病和大型继发孔ASD伴左向右分流的情况,这在文献中尚未有报道。
