3 lut 2012 · Atrial septal aneurysm is a rare cardiac abnormality that is usually detected during routine echocardiography or evaluation of ischemic stroke. It may be isolated or in the presence of other defects, most often patent foramen ovale.
21 mar 2021 · Atrial septal aneurysms (ASAs) are often seen during routine cardiac imaging, though their clinical relevance has been poorly defined. The aneurysmal, and often mobile, inter-atrial septum is frequently associated with other clinically relevant structural cardiac abnormalities, particularly patent foramen ovale (PFO).
Abstract. Background An atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is a well-recognized abnormality of uncertain clinical relevance. We reevaluated the clinical significance of ASA in a large series of patients.
A PFO is best visualized on CTA images in the axial plane or in the vertical plane perpendicular to the interatrial septum, where the 2 embryologic components of the interatrial septa are separated and surrounded by intravenous contrast.
30 sty 2024 · An atrial septal aneurysm is a congenital (present at birth) anomaly of your heart. When present, it means there’s extra tissue in the wall that separates the two upper chambers (atria) of your heart. Sometimes, this extra tissue is visible on an echocardiogram.
20 kwi 2023 · Short-axis cine steady-state free-precession CMR images show the five types of interatrial septal aneurysms. Interatrial septal aneurysms have been classified into five types at echocardiography, but the classification can also be applied to cross-sectional imaging.
Atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) was defined as a septum primum excursion ≥10 mm from the plane of the atrial septum into the right or left atrium. Large patent foramen ovale (PFO) was defined by the appearance of >30 microbubbles in the left atrium within 3 cardiac cycles after opacification of the right atrium.
