Congenital tricuspid valve stenosis in the absence of other valvular abnormalities is rare. In this report we describe a patient with congenital tricuspid valve stenosis, ostium secundum atrial septal defect, and electrocardiographic left anterior fascicular block, who presented with paradoxical emboli. This case, as well as previous case reports, suggests that congenital tricuspid stenosis with ostium secundum atrial septal defect is associated with left anterior fascicular block.
