Inferior sinus venosus atrial septal defect.
One case of inferior vena cava type sinus venosus defect is reported. It is likely to be missed on transthoracic echocardiography. Transesophageal echocardiography is useful. Unlike superior sinus venosus defect which are easily visible on transesophageal echocardiography, a careful search is needed to detect inferior sinus venosus defects. All patients with unexplained right ventricular volume...
متن کاملSuperior Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect: Overview of Surgical Options
Background: Superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect (SV-ASD) is an interatrial defect with partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) draining into the right atrium. The principle for SV-ASD surgical repair involves redirecting the pulmonary venous blood back to the left atrium and closure of the atrial septal defect without compromising the adjoining structures. Methods: We revi...
متن کاملAnatomy of a wrong diagnosis: false Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect
In contrast with transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography provides a sure way to make the diagnosis of sinus venosus atrial septal defect; on the other hand this abnormality is more complex than that seen with the secundum atrial septal defect, and inexperienced operators may fail to recognize properly the defect. In front of a high reported sensitivity using transesopha...
متن کاملSinus venosus syndrome: atrial septal defect or anomalous venous connection? A multiplane transoesophageal approach.
OBJECTIVE To discuss the anatomical features of sinus venosus atrial defect on the basis of a comprehensive transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) examination and its relation to surgical data. METHODS 24 patients (13 men, 11 women, mean (SD) age 37 (17) years, range 17-73 years) with a posterior interatrial communication closely related to the entrance of the superior (SVC) or inferior vena...
متن کاملSurgical closure of sinus venosus atrial septal defect using a single patch--transcaval repair technique.
OBJECTIVE We would like to share our experience of surgical repair of sinus venosus atrial septal defect (ASD) using a simple "transcaval repair technique." METHOD Between January 2007 and October 2010, 48 consecutive patients of sinus venosus ASD underwent surgical repair using transcaval repair technique at our institute. Their ages ranged from 5 to 15 years and male to female ratio was 1.6...
