Abstract Background: The increasing number of patients with Ebstein anomaly (EA) surviving
into adulthood implies improvements in the treatments for the complex lesion. We
revisited the clinical outcomes of patients with EA to demonstrate their “real world”

who underwent medical or surgical management in the present era.
Methods: All patients who had EA with atrioventricular concordance between 1994
and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Baseline characteristics, initial echocardio‐
graphic findings, treatments, and outcomes were explored. The survival analysis was
performed at the end of 2017. A… More >
