Echocardiography may guide Ebstein's anomaly management; leaves open prospective validation against catheterization.
Detailed echocardiographic evaluation is the optimal noninvasive method for diagnosing Ebstein's anomaly and guiding its surgical management.
James B. Seward (1993) conducted a review in Ebstein's anomaly. Echocardiography was evaluated. Echocardiographic evaluation, identifying excessive downward displacement of the tricuspid septal leaflet ≥ 8 mm/m2, is the best means of determining a management course for Ebstein's anomaly.
