An Experience of a Tertiary Center for 9 Years on Patients with Surgical and Percutaneous Closure of Atrial Septal Defects
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Atrial septal defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital cardiac diseases [1]. ASD accounts for 7-10% of all congenital heart diseases in children and 30-33% in adults. Although ASD usually asymptomatic, it can lead to exercise intolerance, atrial arrhythmia, right ventricular dysfunction, and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Guidelines recommend closure of ASD if right ventricular enlargement became regardless of symptoms in patients [2]. The main treatment option is percutaneous transcatheter closure and the other is surgical.

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 Percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects (ASD) is becoming more frequent. PATIENTS AND METHOD From October 1997 to October 2002, 209 patients, age 0.4-70 (mean 19.5) years, were catheterized to close an ASD or patent foramen ovale (PFO). Transesophageal echocardiography was performed simultaneously in all patients. Two hundred and six patients had ASD (25 multiple ASDs) and ...
