Evaluation of the Ventricular Mechanical Dyssynchrony in Patients with Atrial Septal Defect [PDF]
Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2009 Background: There is some evidence indicating improvement in myocardial performance after atrial septal defect closure, either device closure or surgical, but ventricular dyssynchrony has not been evaluated before and after surgical closure.

Pathophysiology and natural history of atrial septal defect.
Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2018 Atrial septal defects are among the third most common types of congenital heart disease. This group of malformations includes several types of atrial communications allowing shunting of blood between the systemic and the pulmonary circulations.

Atrial septal defect closure: indications and contra-indications.
Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2018 Transcatheter closure has become an accepted alternative to surgical repair for ostium secundum atrial septal defects (ASD). However, large ASDs (>38 mm) and defects with deficient rims are usually not offered transcatheter closure but are referred for ...
