Cardiomegalywas present in all patients with a mean cardiothoracic index of 0.77 ± 0.03.On echocardiography, the mean apical displacement of the tricuspid septalleaflet was 22.5 ± 3.30mm/m2, the Celermajer index was Grade 2 in 2 patients and Grade 4 in 2 patients. Depletive medical treatment was prescribedto3 patients. Anticoagulant therapy was initiated in one patient. Two are awaiting surgery. One death was recorded, it was at Grade 4 of the Celermajer index.
