Abstract

We describe a case report of a patient with cardiac arrest and Ebstein's anomaly. This case report shows us necessity for arrhythmia evaluation and sudden death risk stratification even in asymptomatic patients. Prophylactic ICD implantation in this patient population is limited to observational studies and the selection of patients is impeded by the absence of randomized trials and weak predictors.

Abstract in Croatian

Opisali smo slučaj srčanog aresta kod bolesnice s Ebsteinovom anomalijom. Ovaj slučaj nam ukazuje na nužnost evaluacije aritmija te stratifikacije rizika iznenadne srčane smrti čak i kod asimptomatskih pacijenata. U skupini ovakvih bolesnika profilaktička ugradnja ICD-a ograničena je samo na opservacijske studije dok je izbor bolesnika otežan zbog nedostatka randomiziranih istraživanja te nedovoljno definiranih predskazatelja rizika.
