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).
22 cze 2023 · An atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) occurs when a bulge forms in the atrial septum, the membrane separating the heart's upper left and upper right chambers (atria). The atrial septum usually is relatively immobile, but it can sometimes enlarge, become hypermobile, and protrude into the left or right atrium.
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.
20 lis 2012 · Atrial septal aneurysm is redundant and mobile interatrial tissue in the region of the fossa ovalis that displaces more than 1.0–1.5 cm into either atrium (Figs. 9 and S9C). It is identified in 4% of patients undergoing transesophageal echocardiography and is usually accompanied by a PFO (33%) or an ASD (19%).
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.
