Abstract

Ebstein’s anomaly is a rare congenital heart disease constituting less than 1% of patients with congenital heart diseases.  It has diverse presentations, severity, and consequently, the management too. These patients are at increased risk of developing ventricular and supraventricular tachycardias, congestive heart failure, and even death. Here, we report a case of a 32-year old man with Ebstein’s anomaly, who had successfully undergone emergency open inguinal hernioplasty under nerve blocks.
