Summary:
Dandy–Walker malformation (DWM) is a group of
congenital human brain malformation with specific
characteristics. It may be associated with a number of other
organ malformation including heart, eye, and thyroid
glands. In our case, DWM was associated with heart
malformation in the form of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)
and was complicated by atrial fibrillation. The case was
established by computed tomography of brain,
echocardiography and electrocardiography. The patient
was asymptomatic until 7 years of age.
