Abstract
This report describes our experience with a 5-year-old girl who had an extremely rare presentation of a right atrial aneurysm and associated Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Before being referred to our department, she underwent an ineffective radiofrequency ablation for repeated episodes of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia that were causing dizziness, palpitations, and chest discomfort. We resected the aneurysm with good results; she was doing well and was in normal sinus rhythm at the time of her 1-year follow-up visit.

Abstract
Right atrial aneurysm (RAA) is a rare congenital anomaly with a diverse clinical spectrum. We present a case of antenatal detection of a giant RAA. The infant had 3 episodes of staring spells presumed to be thrombo-embolic phenomena originating from the RAA. The infant underwent successful RAA resection with preservation of the right coronary artery that was displaced from its usual position due to invagination of the RAA in the subepicardial space of the right atrio-ventricular groove.
