Three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography for secundum atrial septal defects with a large eustachian valve.
A9-year-old girl underwent transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to determine whether there was an indication for transcatheter closure of her secundum atrial septal defect (ASD). She had been diagnosed as having a single defect by transthoracic echocardiography at 6 months of age. During previous clinic visits, her parents often complained that she had occasional episodes of central cyanosis,...
متن کاملThree-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography of the atrial septal defects
Transesophageal echocardiography has advantages over transthoracic technique in defining morphology of atrial structures. Even though real time three-dimensional echocardiographic imaging is a reality, the off-line reconstruction technique usually allows to obtain higher spatial resolution images. The purpose of this study was to explore the accuracy of off-line three-dimensional transesophagea...
متن کاملReal-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography is useful for percutaneous closure of multiple secundum atrial septal defects.
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value of real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (RT-3D-TEE) for percutaneous transcatheter closure of multiple secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs) using a Chinese domestic occluder device. METHODS From July 2008 to September 2011, 37 patients (mean age 28.4 ± 9.7 years; 24 females) with multiple sec...
متن کاملMitral valve in secundum atrial septal defects.
The mitral valve in 15 of 16 adult hearts with unclosed secundum atrial septal defects showed a consistent abnormality consisting of thickening of the medial half of the anterior cusp and some fusion of adjacent chordae. Histologically the lesion is a surface fibrosis without vascularisation or myxomatous change to suggest a rheumatic or floppy valve. The high frequency and morphological appear...
متن کاملLive/Real time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography in percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects.
OBJECTIVES This study assessed the ability of live/real time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3DTEE) in measuring (1) atrial septal defect (ASD) maximum dimension, area, and adjacent rim size, (2) ASD occluder left and right atrial disk size, (3) length of contact between the left atrial (LA) disk and the aorta, and in (4) assessing device related complications such as residu...
