“…Ostium Secundum Atrial septal defect (OS-ASD) is one of the most common types of congenital heart defects, occurring in about 25% of children. 1,2 Since the 1970s, when the first attempts at transcatheter closure of a OS-ASD were made, various devices have been used with improvement of successful deployment and closure of the defects over time. [3][4][5][6] Transcatheter device closure of OS-ASD is widely accepted as a treatment of choice in most patients with secundum OS-ASD, showing excellent efficacy and lower complication rate as compared to invasive surgery.…”

Background and aimOur aim was to evaluate the fluoroscopy time (FT), procedure time (PT) safety and efficacy when using intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) in comparison to transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) guidance for transcatheter closure of Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect (OS‐ASD).MethodNinety patients (n = 90) diagnosed with OS‐ASD underwent transcatheter closure between March 2006 and October 2021. Fifty‐seven patients were treated under ICE guidance, while 33 patients were treated under TEE guidance.ResultsMean age was 43 ± 15 years and 42 ± 10 years in the ICE and TEE groups, respectively. The majority of patients had a centrally placed defect. Median FT was 8.40 min versus 11.70 min (p < .001) in the ICE group compared to the TEE group, respectively. Median PT was 43 min versus 94 min (p < .001) in the ICE group compared to the TEE group, respectively. Both ICE and TEE provided high quality images. All interventions were completed successfully, except for one patient in the ICE group who experienced a device migration, the development of atrial tachycardia in one patient and atrial fibrillation in two patients in the ICE group which spontaneously cardioverted. There were no other complications.ConclusionThis study on a consistent cohort of patients with OS‐ASD undergoing percutaneous closure suggests that use of ICE is safe and efficacious. Compared to TEE, ICE demonstrated significantly shorter FT and PT, decreasing the entire duration of the procedure and x‐ray exposure. No relevant differences were observed in terms of success rate and complications.

“…3 An ASD occurs when there is a failure to close the communication between the right and left atria. 1 Patent foramen ovale, ostium secundum defect, ostium primum defect, sinus venosus defect, and coronary sinus defect are 5 known types of ASDs. 1 An ostium secundum defect is the most frequent type of ASD (75% of all cases) and exists in the area of the fossa ovalis.…”

Heart block (HB) is one of the most serious arrhythmias. Higher degrees of HB—for example, trifascicular HB—result in a more intense patient condition. Atrial septal defects (ASDs) represent the most common congenital heart disease in adults. All ASDs generally result in a left-to-right shunt, commonly causing right-side enlargement and dilation and, to a lesser extent, left atrial enlargement. A 26-year-old woman presented to the physician outpatient clinic with a complicated ASD with trifascicular HB and severe mitral and tricuspid regurgitations. The trifascicular HB with valvular regurgitations resolved with congenital ASD closure; however, she was diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)–associated cardiac strain 3 years later. Interventions included electrocardiography, oxygenation, echocardiography, and cardiovascular surgical repair. A dramatic electrocardiographic response and better clinical outcomes despite dilations of both atria were observed. Trifascicular HB is a newly recorded association after congenital ASDs in adults. The disappearance of trifascicular HB after surgical closure of the congenital ASD is an indicator of effective surgical repair. The occurrence of COVID-19 pneumonia later, with atrial dilations continuing after the infection, may be a constellation of risk factors for the observed cardiac strain.
