Atrial Septal Aneurysm: A Cause for Midsystolic Click
نویسنده
چکیده
A patient who was evaluated for a midsystolic click was found to have an aneurysm of the atrial septum as an isolated anomaly. Bulging of this aneurysm into the right atrium was associated with the production of the click. Echo-, phono-, and angiocardiographic features are presented, with a review of the literature on atrial septal aneurysms. These aneurysms, although rare, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with midsystolic click.

متن کاملDiagnosis and classification of atrial septal aneurysm by two-dimensional echocardiography: report of 80 consecutive cases.
Atrial septal aneurysms have been related (either by association or as potential causes) to systolic clicks, atrial arrhythmias, systemic and pulmonary embolism, atrioventricular valve prolapse and atrial septal defect. To study these associations and the incidence of atrial septal aneurysm, we reviewed 80 consecutive patients (female to male ratio 1.9:1, mean age 47 years, range 1 day to 89 ye...

متن کاملHolt-Oram Syndrome: A Rare Variant
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...
