Assessment of right atrial function with speckle tracking echocardiography after percutaneous closure of an atrial septal defect.
INTRODUCTION Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) for two-dimensional (2D) strain analysis is a new tool to assess myocardial function. The aim of this study was to assess right atrial (RA) function using STE in patients with an atrial septal defect (ASD) before and one month after percutaneous closure. METHODS We prospectively examined 32 consecutive patients (nine male, 23 female) who un...
متن کاملRight atrial separation effect for chronic atrial fibrillation with atrial septal defect: report of four cases.
We operated on 56 adults diagnosed with atrial septal defect (ASD) between 1990 and 2004. Of these, eight had complications of atrial fibrillation (AF) in the preoperative period. After 1998, right atrial separation was performed in four cases. Marked improvement was noted in three out of the four cases. The right atrial separation procedure was a simple, easy, and effective method for the trea...
متن کاملAssesment of Right Ventricle Function with Speckle Tracking Echocardiography after the Percutaneous Closure of Atrial Septal Defect.
BACKGROUND Transthoracic echocardiography is used for assessment of right ventricular (RV) function. Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is a new tool to assess myocardial function. The aim of this study was to evaluate RV function using STE in patients with atrial septal defect (ASD) before and the first month after percutaneous closure. METHODS We prospectively examined 32 consecutive p...
متن کاملRight atrial myxoma associated with an atrial septal defect by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography.
A 40-year-old woman presented with a 1 month history of shortness of breath and easy fatigability. Two-dimensional echocardiography and real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) showed a large right atrial mass protruding into the right ventricle and an atrial septal defect (ASD). Successful excision of the mass, which proved to be a myxoma, and closure of the ASD completely relieved...
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...
