When to use femoral vein injection for diagnosis of patent foramen ovale—Effect of a persistent eustachian valve on right atrial flow patterns during contrast transesophageal echocardiography 下载免费PDF全文
Contrast echocardiography using agitated saline injected into the antecubital vein is the most common method used for the diagnosis of patent foramen ovale. We describe a case whereby the presence of a persistent eustachian valve and a “negative contrast sign” during contrast transesophageal echocardiography raised suspicion of a false‐negative result. Femoral vein injection of contrast successfully demonstrated a patent foramen ovale. Femoral vein injection should be considered if this scenario is recognized because the eustachian valve directs blood preferentially from the inferior vena cava toward the interatrial septum and this route may prove to be more reliable. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the role of a new technique to deal with a redundant Eustachian valve (EV) interfering with placement of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) occluder. BACKGROUND: The EV is a remnant of the embryonic valve of the sinus venosus. In rare occasions, it is large and redundant and it may interfere with catheters and devices used in cardiac catheterization. METHODS: We have developed a new technique to control the EV in order to avoid interferences with the device for closure of atrial septal defects and PFO's. This technique is called "pull-push" technique and consists in pulling down on the inferior vena cava the redundant EV by using a 6 Fr pigtail catheter while a second operator pushes the right atrial disc out of the long sheath. RESULTS: Here, we report on two patients with a patent foramen ovale, in whom the EV prevented the right atrial disc of an Amplatzer PFO occluder to be completely flat against the interatrial septum. Finally, we used this technique in one more patient to avoid any interference of a very redundant EV during placement of a Starflex device. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion. the so called "pull-push" technique is an alternative and easy technique to control the EV in order to avoid interferences with the device for closure of atrial septal defects and PFO's 相似文献

With the steadily increasing amount of leadless pacemaker implantations performed worldwide, it has called attention to the delivery difficulty in patients with severe large right heart. Nevertheless, limited studies have reported leadless pacemaker implantation in patients with tricuspid stenosis. Here, we report the successful implantation of leadless pacemaker in a 60‐year‐old female patient with giant right atrium and tricuspid valve stenosis. It is highlighted that leadless pacemaker should not be discouraged even if there are tricuspid valve stenosis and giant right atrium. 相似文献

An unusual “mass” within the left atrium: Localized aneurysm of a patent foramen ovale tunnel 下载免费PDF全文
Tolga S. Güvenç MD Özge Güzelburç MD Lale Dinç Asarcikli MD Fatma Can MD Rengin Çetin Güvenç MD Mehmet Eren MD FESC 《Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.)》2018,35(5):755-756
Masses on the interatrial septum are usually caused by myxomas or thrombi within a patent foramen ovale. We report a 53‐year‐old male patient with a hollow mass within the left atrium that was incidentally found during a routine transthoracic echocardiography. Further investigation of the mass with transesophageal two‐ and three‐dimensional echocardiography has revealed that the mass was a localized aneurysm of a patent foramen ovale tunnel. While aneurysms of interatrial septum are relatively common in normal population, to the best of our knowledge, present case is the first report of a localized aneursym of a patent foramen ovale tunnel. 相似文献

This case illustrates the Eustachian valve as an ambiguous entity. By tethering a thrombus the valve prevented a major pulmonary embolism. However, in combination with a patent foramen ovale, it directs the thrombus into the left atrium, creating a threat for systemic embolisms. 相似文献

A 28-year-old man with patent foramen ovale and a prominent Eustachian valve with a history of transient ischemic attack underwent transcatheter closure using Amplatzer patent foramen ovale occluder. During deployment, some of the prominent valve tissue was entrapped on the delivery cable and a piece of the valve was extracted unintentionally. Anatomico-clinical and technical implications are discussed. 相似文献

Percutaneous transcatheter closure of a patent foramen ovale (PFO) remains challenging when femoral venous approach is not available. We describe the successful closure of a PFO using the right internal jugular venous approach and a deflectable catheter delivery system in a patient with a PFO, recurrent stroke, and an inferior vena cava filter. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

In adults, paradoxical embolization of catheters or guidewire fragments related to central venous catheterization is a rare phenomenon. Reports of successful percutaneous retrieval of foreign bodies from the left atrium is also rare. We describe the successful percutaneous retrieval of a fractured guidewire that had undergone paradoxical embolization to the left atrium in an adult patient. 相似文献

Pulmonary embolus sourced by right atrial thrombus trapped in a patent foramen ovale is an unusual, rare condition. Thus in suspicion of massive pulmonary thromboembolus, echocardiographic examination carries great importance evaluate right ventricular functions and diagnose right sided intracardiac thrombus. We report a 76-year-old female with massive pulmonary embolism caused by a gigantic thrombus trapped in a patent foramen ovale. The echocardiography was the diagnostic procedure to display the source of the thromboembolism and urgent cardiac surgery was successful and life-saving treatment in this case. 相似文献

Infective endocarditis in patients with intravenous drug use commonly involves right‐sided heart valves. Eustachian valve (EV) endocarditis is not commonly seen given the valve's infrequent presence. Involvement of the coronary sinus (CS) with endocarditis is also an unusual finding. We present a case with echocardiographic findings consistent with EV endocarditis along with CS involvement, which appropriately responded to antibiotics. 相似文献

Giant right atrium is a rarely reported condition, especially in intrauterine life. It may be mistaken with pericardial effusion and Ebstein's anomaly, which are more common causes of right atrial enlargement.We present a case of prenatal diagnosis of giant right atrium detected at 29 weeks of gestation by fetal echocardiography. 相似文献

Cardiac lympangiectasia is a rare pathological dilation of the lymphatic channels of the heart. Diagnosis is made by pathology; however, there remains no definitive diagnostic study. There are reports of cardiac cystic lymphangiectasias in children. A case of right atrial lymphangiectasia, initially identified by echocardiography, is presented here. This is the first report of such a mass. 相似文献

Incidental tricuspid valve fibroelastoma associated with patent foramen ovale in a young female: Straightforward diagnosis but controversial management 下载免费PDF全文
Cristina Ruisanchez PhD Angela Alonso MD Beatriz Carballo MD Aritz Gil MD Piedad Lerena MD Jose Aurelio Sarralde PhD Francisco Javier Ruano MD 《Echocardiography (Mount Kisco, N.Y.)》2017,34(9):1399-1400
Papillary fibroelastoma is an uncommon primary cardiac tumor, predominantly associated with left‐sided valvular endocardium. Affectation of tricuspid valve leaflets is rare, and management in asymptomatic patients remains controversial. We present a 30‐year‐old female referred for evaluation prior to bariatric surgery. A routine echocardiogram revealed a mobile cardiac mass attached to the tricuspid valve. A patent foramen ovale was also present. Tumor was surgically removed. Histology confirmed the definite diagnosis of a papillary fibroelastoma. In our case, the presence of a patent foramen ovale associated with the right‐sided fibroelastoma was decisive in the decision for surgery. 相似文献

The eustachian valve is an embryologic remnant of the valve of the inferior vena cava. It may be prominent in some individuals, but the echocardiographic appearance of a divided right atrium, as the consequence of a large eustachian valve, is extremely rare. Herein we describe an unusual giant eustachian valve with an echocardiographic appearance of a septal structure dividing the right atrium into 2 separate chambers. This abnormality should be differentiated from cor triatriatum dexter, a very rare cardiac malformation for which it could be mistaken. 相似文献

A structural abnormality was suspected when passage of a Swan-Ganz catheter was obstructed at the distal superior vena cava (SVC). At autopsy, lipomatous hypertrophy of the right atrium markedly narrowed the lumen at the SVC-right atrial junction. 相似文献
