Overview

The pathophysiology of Ebstein's anomaly depends on the morphology of tricuspid valve and the right ventricle. The annulus of the valve is in normal position. The valve leaflets however, are to a varying degree attached to the walls and septum of the right ventricle. There is subsequent atrialization of a portion of the morphologic right ventricle (which is then contiguous with the right atrium). This causes the right atrium to be large and the anatomic right ventricle to be small in size. 50% of cases involve an atrial shunt (either a PFO or an ASD).


Pathophysiology

  • Pathophysiology mainly involves the right ventricle, right atrium and tricuspid valve.[1][2][3][4]
  • They include:
  1. Failure of TV leaflet delamination
  2. Apical descent of the functional tricuspid orifice
  3. Right ventricular dilation and “atrialization”
  4. Anterior leaflet abnormal fenestrations and tethering
  5. Right atrioventricular junction dilation

Tricuspid Valve

  • The superficial layer of the right myocardium usually delaminates to form the septal and posterior leaflets of the tricuspid valve.
  • Any Delamination failure might result in adherence of the leaflets to the ventricular myocardium as a result causes apical displacement of the tricuspid valve leaflets.
  • The tricuspid valve orifice is in normal position.
  • The anterior leaflet of the tricuspid valve is attached to the tricuspid valve annulus or to the right ventricular endocardium.
  • The septal and posterior leaflets of the tricuspid valve are absent most of the time.
  • Due to these changes, the tricuspid valve may become funnel-shaped and incompetent or leaky.

Right Ventricle

The right ventricle changes secondary to the malformed tricuspid valves. The right ventricle can be divided into two parts by the malformed valve:

  • The downward extension of the tricuspid valve causes 'atrialization' of the proximal part of the right ventricle
  • The small distal part, the right ventricle proper, thus is reduced in size and sometimes comprises only of the right ventricular outflow tract

Genetics

  • Till now the genetic basis for this condition is largely unknown or very little is known about this.[5][6]
  • Mutations in MYH7, which a sarcomere gene encoding the cardiac beta-myosin heavy chain have been linked in the occurance of familial Ebstein anomaly.
  • It is formulated that embryonic cell migration may be impaired by these MYH7 mutations.
  • Cardiac transcription factors NK2 homeobox 5 (NKX2-5) and GATA binding protein 4 (GATA4) mutations have also been described in some cases.
