CONGENITAL PARTIAL PERICARDIAL DEFECT WITH HERNIATION OF THE LEFT ATRIAL APPENDAGE
Congenital defects of the pericardium are considered rare. Until 1979 , the reported cases were only about 200.1 Total absence of the left pericardium is the most common defect2 and less common is a partial defect of the left pericardium. Other types, i.e. isolated right-sided defects, total pericardial absence and diaphragmatic pericardial defects are very rare.3 Before the last decade, t...
متن کاملPersistent Atrial Fibrillation Related to a Congenital Pericardial Defect and Left Atrial Appendage Herniation
Congenital pericardial defects (CPDs) are infrequent anomalies that are usually asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally during unrelated interventions. Here we report the case of a CPD with herniation of an enlarged left atrial appendage identified during total thoracoscopic ablation (TTA) for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF). The persistent AF was successfully treated with a hybrid pro...

A 33‐year‐old female patient presented to us with intermittent chest discomfort for 2 years and sudden syncope 1 month before without coronary heart disease, hypertension, or valvular heart disease. She was diagnosed as pericardial cyst by a physician of local hospital with transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), and her thoracoscopic resection was discontinued when the surgeon observed the left ...
متن کاملA Semi-Automated Algorithm for Segmentation of the Left Atrial Appendage Landing Zone: Application in Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Procedures
Background: Mechanical occlusion of the Left atrial appendage (LAA) using a purpose-built device has emerged as an effective prophylactic treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke and a contraindication for anticoagulation. A crucial step in procedural planning is the choice of the device size. This is currently based on the manual analysis of the “Device Landing Zone” fr...
