It is an embryonic remnant of the right valve of the sinus venosus. Chiari network is often associated with a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Hence it may be noted in cases of paradoxical embolism and stroke.<\/p>\n<p>It was described by Hans Chiari in 1897 in thirteen human right atria. It was a pathological description [1, 2]. It could be misinterpreted as right atrial thrombi, tumour or vegetation. Rare case of tricuspid regurgitation due to the attachment of the network has also been described [3].<\/p>\n<p>Occasionally infective endocarditis may be associated with the network [4]. Sometimes a thrombus may be caught in the network, preventing pulmonary embolism like an inferior vena caval filter! Pacemaker leads, especially the tined ones, can get entrapped in the network during implantation. Similar way, guidewire entrapment has also been described during invasive procedures [1].<\/p>\n<p>In an autopsy series, Kunwar P Bhatnagar, G S Nettleton, Ferrell R Campbell, Charles E Wagner, Nobuyuki Kuwabara and Horia Muresian noted Chiari malformations in 13.6% of the 213 cadaver hearts [5], though the often quoted prevalence is around 2%.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>References<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>A K M Monwarul Islam, Lima Asrin Sayami, Shahana Zaman. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3809461\/\">Chiari Network: A Case Report and Brief Overview<\/a>.
