Scimitar syndrome is a rare congenital heart defect occurring in 1 to 3 per 100,000 live births. This is a case of a 26 years old lady presenting with episodic fainting spells since the age of 18 years old. She was initially diagnosed with epilepsy until a referral to our centre found a soft splitting of the second heart sound and multiple premature ventricular complexes on ECG. The computed tomography of the pulmonary artery confirmed the diagnosis if Scim- itar syndrome in the presence of anomalous single right pulmonary vein draining into infra-diaphragmatic systemic venous circulation. A corrective open-heart surgery to re-implant the pulmonary vein was performed with excellent clinical outcomes. Therefore, it is crucial for clinicians to embody high index of suspicion of congenital anomaly even in adults presenting with indefinite clinical symptoms. This report also represents the first published case of adult Scimitar syndrome from Malaysia.
