A postmortem in a woman of 65 revealed Ebstein's anomaly of the heart with ventricular septum defect. The defect had been closed from the right side by the septal cups of the tricuspid valve coalescing with its edges. Literary sources refer to only 6 cases of Ebstein's anomaly in subjects older than our patient. The simultaneous presence of spontaneously closed defect of ventricular septum makes it an entirely exceptional case.
