Electron beam angiography for the evaluation of percutaneous atrial septal defect closure.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Electron beam angiography (EBA) provides excellent anatomic imaging in patients with congenital heart disease and may be useful in the assessment of atrial septal defects (ASDs). We present four patients with an ASD who were considered for percutaneous closure and underwent EBA for measurement of defect size and assessment of rim adequacy, adjacent cardiac structures, and associated congenital anomalies.

Integrated 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...

Introduction: In this study, we sought to illustrate our experience in urgent surgical management for embolized cardiac septal occlude devices resulting from trans-catheter closure of atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect. Mathrials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed four patients aged 2–10 years who underwent urgent surgery due to cardiac septal occluder embolization between...

The use of the Tandem Heart percutaneous ventricular assist device (Tandem Heart pVAD, Cardiac Assist technologies, Pittsburgh, PA) as a bridge to recovery or to other cardiopulmonary support systems has been rising. One requirement for placement of this device is an intraatrial septostomy which is usually closed during the surgical insertion of more permanent ventricular assist devices. We pre...
