Congenital aortocaval fistula mimicking atrial septal defect on transthoracic echocardiography
An 18-year-old woman was admitted to our clinic for advanced cardiac evaluation due to long-standing exercise induced dyspnea. Physical examination of the patient showed absence of pallor, clubbing, cyanosis or any manifestations of Marfan syndrome. All peripheral pulses were symmetrically palpable. No jugular distention was seen. Cardiac auscultation revealed a continuous murmur best heard at ...
متن کاملPercutaneous device closure of atrial septal defect with totally transthoracic echocardiography guide, without x-ray machine
The present study investigated the feasibility of totally transthoracic echocardiography-guided percutaneous device occlusion of atrial septal defects (ASDs) without using x-ray equipment.Between September and December 2014, we performed totally transthoracic echocardiography-guided percutaneous device occlusion for 20 patients with secundum ASD without using x-ray equipment. We carried out per...
متن کاملThe reliability of transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography in predicting the size of atrial septal defect.
OBJECTIVE To determine the reliability of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in predicting the size of an atrial septal defect (ASD). MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 16 patients who underwent the catheter-based procedures to close an atrial septal defect between February 2008 and December 2011 at the Paediatrics Clinic, CCU Sarajevo, after ...
متن کاملTranscatheter closure of atrial septal defects with transthoracic echocardiography.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to evaluate our clinical experience using an Amplatzer septal occluder for catheter closure of a secundum atrial septal defect under transthoracic echocardiography guidance without general anaesthesia. METHODS Patients eligible for transcatheter atrial septal defect closure were selected using transthoracic echocardiography. The largest defect diameter meas...
متن کاملTransthoracic closure of atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect without cardiopulmonary bypass.
The minimally invasive surgical transthoracic occlusion of an atrial septal defect (ASD) or a ventricular septal defect (VSD) is an increasingly widespread alternative treatment for congenital heart disease. The aim of this study is to summarize our clinical experience with minimally invasive surgical transthoracic occlusion of ASD and VSD without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Between April 201...
