Multiple Congenital Heart Abnormalities

Abstract

Congenital heart abnormalities are rare and most often occur separately. These structural and functional disorders can cause a range of diseases that vary in severity, from mild or even asymptomatic to severe and life-threatening. Occasionally these conditions could cause no symptoms in which case they are found accidentally when the patient is examined for other reasons or during autopsy. In this article we present the case of a 47-year-old male patient with triple congenital heart anomaly detected in two consecutive tests performed in pre-hospital medical care.
