    Abstract Introduction: Mechanisms and risk factors for cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) in Ebstein’s anomaly (EA) are not well understood; hence, we aimed to clarify these in a large cohort of EA patients.
    Methods: Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of EA were retrospectively reviewed. Baseline characteristics were compared between patients with and without a prior history of CVA using logistic regression modeling. Cox regression analysis was used to identify predictors of CVA following initial evaluation.
