    AbstractIn medical literature, the association of acquired and congenital heart disease is interestingly well known, but uncommon. We report a case of young male adult whose therapeutic management for rheumatic mitral stenosis is changed as sinus venosus atrial septal defect was detected by transesophageal echocardiography. Presence of partial anomalous pulmonary venous return of right superior pulmonary vein into the superior vena cava detected in transesophageal echocardiography was confirmed at the operation which was successfully carried out to correct all three abnormalities through the right atrial approach.
