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.
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.
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).
1 sty 2022 · Whilst ASAs have previously been considered an incidental finding, a well-endowed atrial septum provides more than visual interest, including insights into atrial function and intra-atrial pressures, and has important clinical implications in PFO-associated stroke, migraines, and arrhythmias.
20 kwi 2023 · An atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is a developmental bulging of the interatrial septum due to redundant septal tissue, usually in the region of the fossa ovalis. Much less commonly, ASAs can be acquired, and this form is theorized to develop owing to interatrial pressure differences ( 23 ).
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.
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).
