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...

respectively. Electrocardiography (ECG) showed sinus rhythm with a normal axis. The chest X-ray was unremarkable. Two-dimensional (2D) and real-time 3-dimensional (3D) transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) revealed a very mobile (characterized by whip-like motion), thin, filamentous structure in the right atrium (Chiari network) prolapsing into right ventricle through the tricuspid orifice durin...
متن کامل[Correction of the perpendicular positioning of the Amplatzer device during closure of an ostium secundum atrial septal defect].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Ostium secundum atrial septal defects require closure. Echocardiographic studies have reported that, in 7% of cases, the Amplatzer occluder is orientated perpendicular to the rim of the defect. This article describes the use of an ancillary technique involving a balloon catheter that enables the Amplatzer device to be positioned transversely. METHODS We report six ...
متن کاملLate emergence of platypnea orthodeoxia: Chiari network and atrial septal hypertrophy demonstrated with transoesophageal echocardiography.
Platypnea orthodeoxia is a rare syndrome that describes breathlessness on standing that resolves on lying flat. We present a previously healthy patient who developed platypnea orthodeoxia in her eighth decade of life. Cardiovascular imaging demonstrated an atrial septal defect, extensive Chiari network and atrial septal hypertrophy. We propose the development of lipomatous atrial septal hypertr...
