نویسندگان
چکیده
The echocardiogram showed marked right heart chamber dilation (right ventricle ‐ RV 52 mm), a slight increase of the left atrium (45 mm), systolic blood pressure of 44 mmHg in the RV. The ascending aorta was normal (37 mm) and showed no myocardial hypertrophy (septum/posterior wall of 11 mm). Left ventricular function (75%) and size (39 mm) were normal. TEE showed major discontinuity of the atrial septum at two points, of 8 and 26 mm each, with edges present in the entire contour. No abnormalities were identified in the aorta.

Background & Aim: Coarctation accounts for about 5-9% of congenital heart diseases and is the fifth common congenital heart disorder in children. Approximately 90% of untreated patients die before the age of 50 and about half of deaths occur before the age of 10 due to heart failure. The main goal of this study is assessing the frequency of reccurent coarctation after repair and determining...
متن کاملAcquired Infrarenal Abdominal Aortic Coarctation: Treatment with Percutaneous Self Expandable Stent
Abdominal aortic coarctation is an extremely rare vascular pathology. Its etiology can be congenital or acquired. Here we present a case of acquired infrarenal abdominal coarctation in a 66-year-old woman who complained of low back and legs pain. She had no signs of resting lower limb ischemia, with diminished distal pulses and normal blood pressure in upper and lower extremities. Magnetic reso...
متن کاملUrgent Surgical Intervention for Embolized Cardiac Occluder Devices: A Case Series
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...
متن کاملEndovascular Management of Aortic Coarctation in an Adult Patient
Coarctation of the Aorta (CoA) accounts for approximately 5% of all congenital heart defects worldwide, with a three-fold greater prevalence in males than females [1]. Because it frequently occours side by side with other abnormalities such as bicuspid aortic valve and ventricular septal defect, it is often missed out in the differential. This makes it all the more necessary to use radiological...
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...
