Long‐Term Trends in Cardiac Erosion After Transcatheter Closure of Atrial Septal Defects With the Amplatzer Septal Occluder

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 875-882, September 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Trends in cardiac erosion after closure of secundum atrial septal defects (ASD) with the Amplatzer Septal Occluder (ASO) have not been assessed since updates were made to the Instructions for Use in 2012 and 2018. This study evaluates the incidence and demographics of ASO erosion over time since its introduction in 1996.

Giant Fetal Sacrococcygeal Teratoma: Prenatal Detection, Monitoring, and Postnatal Management—A Case Report and Literature Review

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT) is a rare congenital tumor arising from pluripotent cells at the base of the coccyx and is most often detected during antenatal imaging. In this case, a massive SCT was identified at 26 + 2 weeks during routine ultrasound.

Long‐Term Outcome After Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation Across an Atrial Septal Defect Closure Device: A 20‐Month Follow‐Up Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Balloon‐assisted transseptal puncture across a large atrial septal defect closure device can permit pulsed‐field ablation in selected patients with complex septal anatomy, achieving durable pulmonary vein isolation and sinus rhythm. A borderline residual left‐to‐right shunt developed post‐procedure but decreased on serial imaging without ...

Recognition of Patau Syndrome (Trisomy 13) Based on Clinical Features in a Resource‐Limited Setting: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Patau syndrome (trisomy 13) is a life‐limiting chromosomal disorder with multiple congenital anomalies. We report a term male neonate with bilateral cleft lip and palate, aplasia cutis congenita, postaxial polydactyly, hypotonia, congenital heart disease, and presumed neonatal sepsis.

Mono‐dimensional, two‐dimensional and Doppler echocardiographic measurements in healthy Standardbred neonatal foals in the first 5 days of life

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 5, Page 1345-1354, September 2026.
Abstract Background Bodyweight, age and breed influence the echocardiographic assessment of foals. There are no echocardiographic studies in Standardbred neonatal foals. Objectives To describe echocardiographic values for selected variables, evaluate intra‐ and inter‐observer variability and assess cardiac changes in the first 5 days of life in healthy

5D Flow MRI Reveals Respiration‐Driven Changes in Blood Flow Energetics in Congenital Heart Disease

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 3, Page 1342-1354, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Hemodynamic monitoring is essential for patients with right‐sided congenital heart disease (CHD). Respiration may have an increased impact on pulmonary flow in these patients that cannot be assessed by standard tools including 4D flow MRI. This study uses 5D flow MRI to assess respiratory‐cycle variations in flow energetics in patients

Safety and effectiveness of transcatheter closure of atrial septal defects: Initial results in Fukushima Prefecture [PDF]

Background: Atrial septal defect is the third most common type of congenital heart disease. Surgical closure was the standard treatment for atrial septal defects before transcatheter closure was approved as minimally invasive treatment in Japan in 2006 ...
