Giant right atrial aneurysm with atrial fibrillation.
Congenital right atrial aneurysm is a rare condition. Here we reported a 16-year-old male with giant right atrial aneurysm, atrial fibrillation, and atrial septal defect. Surgical resection of extensive right atrium, ASD repair, and maze procedure were performed. In the present case, we found extensive enlargement of right atrium protruding to the apex on the surface of the right ventricle. With the exist of atrial fibrillation, thrombus formation was always a lethal threat. Surgical treatment can provide excellent clinical results and further avoided life-threatening complications.
