Left atrial appendage aneurysm and atrial septal defect.
We present a case of left atrial appendage (LAA) aneurysm and atrial septal defect in a 1-year-old child without cardiovascular symptoms referred for cardiac murmurs and cardiomegaly and diagnosed by 2and 3-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography. Subcostal and apical views showed a wide, fenestrated ostium secundum-type atrial septal defect with redundant septum (Fig. 1, arrow). The right-s...
متن کامل'Coumadin ridge' in the left atrium demonstrated on three dimensional transthoracic echocardiography.
An echogenic band like structure was seen in the left atrium on two dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (2D TTE). Full volume three dimensional (3D) TTE and colour Doppler established the surrounding anatomical landmarks, and demonstrated the absence of obstruction related to this band. 3D TTE confirmed that this band like structure was consistent with the ridge between the left atrial a...
متن کاملگزارش یک مورد کرتری اتریاتوم همراه با افزایش فشار شریان ریوی
Çor triatriatum is a cardiac anomaly that is due to failure of resorption of the common pulmonary vein results in a left atrium divided by an abnormal fibromascular diaphragm into posterosuperior and the anteroinferior chambers. The communication between the divided atrial chambers may be large, small or absent, depending on the size of the opening (s) in the diaphragm, which determines the d...
متن کاملImaging of thrombi and assessment of left atrial appendage function: a prospective study comparing transthoracic and transoesophageal echocardiography.
OBJECTIVE To compare the value of current transthoracic echocardiographic systems and transoesophageal echocardiography for assessing left atrial appendage function and imaging thrombi. DESIGN Single blind prospective study. Patients were first investigated by transthoracic echocardiography and thereafter by a second investigator using transoesophageal echocardiography. The feasibility of ima...
متن کاملLeft atrial appendage mass: is it always a thrombus?
Myxoma is the most common benign tumor of the heart, but it is very rare for it to originate from the left atrial appendage. Distinguishing between a mass, a thrombus, and a tumor in the body of the left atrium with preoperative transthoracic or transesophageal echocardiography is very difficult, even more so in patients with mitral valve disease and chronic atrial fibrillation. A 50-year-old m...
