Lutembacher's Syndrome in a 45‐Year‐Old Female From Ambo University Hospital of Ethiopia: A Case Report and literature Review

Lutembacher's syndrome is characterized by an atrial septal defect (ASD) combined with mitral stenosis (MS) of variable severity, both of which can be either congenital or acquired with or without the presence of varying grades of mitral regurgitation. Appropriate diagnosis with the optimal therapy depends on knowing the syndrome. Furthermore, optimal medical therapy with or without surgical closure of the atrial septal defect is the standard of care for better patient outcomes.

Abstract

Lutembacher's syndrome is characterized by an atrial septal defect (ASD) combined with mitral stenosis (MS) of variable severity, both of which can be either congenital or acquired with or without the presence of varying grades of mitral regurgitation. Appropriate diagnosis with the optimal therapy depends on knowing the syndrome. Furthermore, optimal medical therapy with or without surgical closure of the atrial septal defect is the standard of care for better patient outcomes.
