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.
18 mar 2024 · The interatrial septum is a thin wall of tissue that separates the right and left atria of the heart. In adult life, its main function is to separate the two atrial chambers so that there is no shunting of blood between them.
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).
The interatrial septum (IAS) is traditionally regarded as a fibromuscular structure separating the right atrium (RA) and left atrium (LA). The IAS plays an important role in both interatrial and intra-atrial conduction (1–5).
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.
4 sty 2024 · Interatrial septal aneurysm or atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is defined as an abnormal protrusion of the interatrial septum. The exact length of the protrusion that defines an interatrial septal aneurysm varies in the literature, ranging from >11 mm to >15 mm beyond normal excursion in adults 4,5 and 5 mm in children.
