Ebstein’s anomaly Physical examination —

The last finding represents passive hepatic congestion resulting from tricuspid regurgitation and elevated right atrial pressure.
The physical findings vary with the severity of pathology and the magnitude of right-to-left interatrial shunting.
A systolic murmur from tricuspid regurgitation is a common finding
When tricuspid regurgitation is severe, jugular venous distension and a prominent “v” wave may be seen

ECG

shows tall, broad, right atrial P waves in V1, increased PR interval, right bundle block branch dee
aves in L2, 3, aVF and Vl V2.

X-ray

decreased pulmonary vascularity, small aortic t and pulmonary trunk and large right atrium.
In severe cases, the chest radiograph reveals massive cardiomegaly (often termed a “wall to wall” heart) with diminished pulmonary vascularity
