Double atrial septum with interatrial chamber formation and recurrent paradoxical embolism.
Paradoxical embolism is a common cause of cryptogenic stroke. Cardiogenic origin is often the real culprit of unexplained stroke. We report a rare case of double atrial septum with an interatrial chamber and stenosis of the inferior vena cava orifice, which lead to recurrent paradoxical embolism, and then highlight the clinical importance of this rare type of congenital heart disease.
متن کاملEbstein Anomaly With Right Atrial Clot
Ebstein anomaly (EA) is a rare congenital malformation of the tricuspid valve (TV), often associated with other cardiac malformations, especially atrial septal defect/patent foramen ovale (PFO) which is present in 80-90% of patients and predisposes to paradoxical embolization. We describe the case of a 17-year-old female, who presented with worsening exertional dyspnea, fatigue and pedal edema ...
متن کاملAcute myocardial infarction caused by paradoxical tumorous embolism as a manifestation of hepatocarcinoma.
A 71 year old patient presented with a non-ST segment elevation acute myocardial infarction. The echocardiogram showed several masses attached to the interatrial septum. Several days after admission the patient died. A postmortem examination found a large hepatocarcinoma with intravascular and intracardiac metastases and several myocardial infarctions of different ages. The infarctions had been...
متن کاملRight heart dysfunction, pulmonary embolism, and paradoxical embolization during liver transplantation. A transesophageal two-dimensional echocardiographic study.
In 16 adult patients, we performed continuous intraoperative two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (2DTEE) to help elucidate the mechanism of myocardial dysfunction that accompanies liver transplantation. In 4 of the 16 patients "paradoxical" motion of the interventricular septum consistent with right ventricular failure was seen. An additional three of the 16 patients showed right a...
متن کاملA Case of Shunting Postoperative Patent Foramen Ovale Under Mechanical Ventilation Controlled by Different Ventilator Settings
A 56-year old male with ischemic heart disease and an unremarkable preoperative echocardiogram underwent surgical coronary revascularization. An intraoperative post pump trans-esophageal echocardiogram (TOE) performed while the patient was being ventilated at a positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 8 cm H2O demonstrated a right to left interatrial shunt across a patent foramen ovale (PFO)....
متن کاملPatent foramen ovale and mechanical ventilation.
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is an incomplete closure of the interatrial septum. This is a frequent finding in healthy individuals. Under conditions in which there is an increase of pressure in the right chambers of the heart, a right-left shunt may arise, with variable degrees of secondary hypoxaemia. A 26-year-old male was admitted for craniocephalic trauma, which evolved without complications,...
