A repair technique is reported for Ebstein's anomaly associated with partial atrioventricular canal. When there is inadequate size of the anterior leaflet of the tricuspid valve, pericardial patch augmentation of the anterior leaflet may result in a well functioning monocusp tricuspid valve.

D004437	Ebstein Anomaly	A congenital heart defect characterized by downward or apical displacement of the TRICUSPID VALVE, usually with the septal and posterior leaflets being attached to the wall of the RIGHT VENTRICLE. It is characterized by a huge RIGHT ATRIUM and a small and less effective right ventricle.

D004694	Endocardial Cushion Defects	A spectrum of septal defects involving the ATRIAL SEPTUM; VENTRICULAR SEPTUM; and the atrioventricular valves (TRICUSPID VALVE; BICUSPID VALVE). These defects are due to incomplete growth and fusion of the ENDOCARDIAL CUSHIONS which are important in the formation of two atrioventricular canals, site of future atrioventricular valves.
