Large Thrombus Formation from Right Atrial Incision Site after Closure of Atrial Septal Defect
نویسندگان
چکیده
Atrial septal defect (ASD) is the common congenital anomaly which requires surgical interventions. Right atrial thrombus formations after primary suture repairs of the ASD and evidences of thromboembolic complications are extremely rare. Specifically, the cases of thromboembolic complications have high mortality and morbidity risks. Two cases of giant intra-atrial thrombus formation detected in the late stage after primary repairs of ASDs are being discussed.

Acute Left Atrial Thrombus Formation on Resected Residual Cribriform Septum after Atrial Septal Defect Surgery
Acute left atrial thrombosis at the site of the resection of the primary cribriform septum is an exceedingly rare and important complication after atrial septal defect (ASD) closure with a pericardial or synthetic patch. This case report presents a mobile thrombus noted on the left atrium at the raw surface site of a resected cribriform primary septum that was not caught in the suture line with...
متن کاملIntegrated Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Occlusion and Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Introduction: Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart diseases during childhood. Today, ASD closure is done by occlutech device via cardiac catheterization. ASD repair with transcatheter technique has shown high closure rate. However, coexistence of severe pulmonary stenosis and large defect in atrial septum is rare. When these two problems coexist, the result is i...
متن کاملRight atrial thrombosis and pulmonary embolism after atrial septal defect repair: could it be hereditary thrombophilia?
A 3-year-old boy underwent surgical closure of a large ostium secundum atrial septal defect. This was complicated with extensive right atrial thrombus formation and pulmonary thromboembolism immediately following surgery. He was managed with emergency surgical thromboembolectomy and anticoagulation. However, new thrombus was formed again immediately. This prompted us to add thrombolysis to his ...

Holt-Oram syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder, characterised by skeletal abnormalities of the upper limb associated with congenital heart defect, mainly atrial and ventricular septal defects. Skeletal defects exclusively affect the upper limbs in the preaxial radial ray distribution and are bilateral and asymmetrical. They range from clinodactyly, absent or digitalised thumb, hypoplastic...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence, morphology, and clinical course of thrombus formation after catheter closure of intra-atrial shunts. BACKGROUND Post-procedure detailed information about thrombotic material on different devices for transcatheter closure is missing. METHOD A total of 1,000 consecutive patients were investigated after patent foramen ovale...
