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.
An atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is a rare but well-recognized cardiac abnormality of uncertain clinical significance. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ASA has been reported as an unexpected finding during autopsy 1 but may also be diagnosed in living patients by echocardiographic techniques. 2 ASA formation can be secondary to interatrial pressure differences but ...
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).
7 sie 2020 · Atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is an uncommon but well-recognized cardiac abnormality. This educational text reviews the case of a 54-year-old female presenting an ASA related to a small ostium secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) (Figure 1).
22 cze 2023 · An atrial septal aneurysm is a type of heart defect present at birth. In utero, we all have a hole along the atrial septum dividing the left and right atria. The hole is known as patent foramen ovale (PFO).
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.
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.
