The Impact Of Real-Time Three Dimensional Transoesophageal Echocardiography Before Transcatheter Radiofrequency Ablation Of Atrial Fibrillation In Patients With Prosthetic Mechanical Mitral Valve.
Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia following valvular heart surgery. Radiofrequence catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation in patients with prothetic mechanical mitral valve is feasible and relatively safe in experienced center. Implementation of real-time three dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography in atrial fibrillation can demonstrate on-line left atrial and left atr...
متن کاملUtility of real-time three-dimensional intracardiac echocardiography for patent foramen ovale closure.
Recently, many interventional centres have adopted intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) in preference to transoesophageal echocardiography to guide percutaneous patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure. ICE obviates the need for general anaesthesia, facilitating earlier hospital discharge, and gives superior imaging capability, particularly of the inferior interatrial septum. 2 The advent of real-time...
متن کاملTranscatheter closure of multiple atrial septal defects. Initial results and value of two- and three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography.
AIMS To examine the feasibility of transcatheter closure of multiple atrial septal defects using two Amplatzer devices simultaneously and to describe the importance and the role of two- and three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography in the selection and closure of such defects. METHODS Twenty-two patients with more than one atrial septal defect underwent an attempt at transcatheter c...
متن کاملReal-time three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiographic imaging of an aorto-left atrial fistula.
A 21-year-old man with Marfan syndrome with aortic and mitral mechanical prosthetic valve presented with a type-3 aortic dissection. A successful endovascular aortic repair with graft stent was performed. On the fifth day of admission, he was uneventfully discharged. But ten days later, he represented with dyspnoea, high fever (39.2°C) and chills. He had a 4/6 diastolic murmur at aortic point i...
متن کاملIsolated posterior mitral valve cleft: diagnosis by real-time three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography.
We report a case of an isolated cleft mitral valve with two clefts in the posterior leaflet. Our case adds to the few reports of posterior and multiple mitral valve clefts and, to our knowledge, is one of the first using real-time transoesophageal three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of isolated cleft mitral valve.
