Chest X Ray

Chest x-ray of a patient with Ebstein anomaly

Severe cases

• Massive cardiomegaly (balloon shaped globular heart, "wall to wall" heart)

• Diminished pulmonary vascularity

• Dilated right atrium

• Left heart border becomes straight or convex due to dilated and displaced right ventricular outflow.

The chest radiograph may be normal in patients with less severe disease.
