Five cases with cor triatriatum were diagnosed in less than a two years period. There were 4 females and one male. The mean age was 3.6 years. Three patients were operated on successfully. One patient died shortly after cardiac catheterization in acute pulmonary edema, another case is waiting for surgery with mild obstruction. We do not have a complete explanation for this high incidence of cor triatriatum. The utility of Echo Doppler color in diagnosis is highlighted. A literature review is made.
