Summary:[...]the anterior leaflet is enlarged and sail-like, but it has a normal position. [...]the RV is malformed and divided into a proximal thin-walled (atrialized) and a distal thick-walled (ventricularized) (4, 5). [...]the valve-skirt technique was completed by RA reduction plasty (Figure 3). [...]this surgical technique for Ebstein’s anomaly can be performed with low mortality and morbidity. [...]this technique is very simple, efficient, and feasible and every surgeon can learn it.
