| description | We report the case of a 17-year-old girl who presented with an indentation in the right ventricle caused by
an incomplete pericardium on preoperative 3-dimensional reconstructed computed tomography. She was to
undergo surgery for a partial atrioventricular septal defect and secundum atrial septal defect. Preoperative
electrocardiography revealed occasional premature ventricular beats. We found the absence of the left side of
the pericardium intraoperatively, and this absence caused strangulation of the diaphragmatic surface of the
right ventricle. After correcting the lesion, the patient’s rhythm disturbances improved. |
