Large nonapical right ventricular diverticulum in a patient with atrioventricular septal defect

Michael Weidenbach, Bardo Wannenmacher, Christian Paech, Robert Wagner

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology 2018 11(2):222-223

Congenital diveticula and aneurysm of the heart are rare and most often located at the apex of the left ventricle. They pose a significant risk for cardiac failure and arrhythmias. In contrast, nonapical diverticula of the right ventricle (RV) have a much more benign course. We present a child with Trisomy 21, atrioventricular septal defect, and large nonapical diverticulum of the RV that was neither addressed during surgery nor needed any medical treatment during 1-year follow-up.
