“…Inverted P waves in the inferior leads suggest an absent or deficient sinus node, as may be seen in a sinus venosus defect. 16,17 Right atrial overload is often present. First-degree heart block suggests a primum ASD 18 but may be seen in older patients with a secundum ASD.…”

“…The interatrial communication lies outside the confines of the fossa ovalis, and typically connects the left atrium and superior vena cava (SVC) [35]. Occasionally, the communication is located inferiorly in relation to the inferior vena cava (IVC) orifice [36]. Sinus venosus ASD is associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (PAPVR) in 80-90% of cases, which most often involves drainage of the right superior pulmonary vein into the right atrium or SVC [37,38].…”

Cardiac causes of pulmonary arterial hypertension: assessment with multidetector CT

et al. 2009

The causes of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are diverse and include multiple congenital and acquired cardiac diseases as well as diseases primarily affecting the pulmonary vasculature, lung, pleura and chest wall. The traditional role of CT in evaluating PAH includes assessment of pulmonary vasculature and lung parenchyma with limited assessment of the heart. Advances in multidetector CT technology with improved spatial and temporal resolution now permit accurate delineation of cardiac morphology. CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is widely utilised in the workup of patients with suspected pulmonary vascular disease and can identify both pulmonary and cardiac causes. As the initial presentation for CTPA is often precipitated by nonspecific, unexplained symptoms and therefore undertaken by a general radiologist, it is important that a systematic approach to the interpretation of these studies, including cardiac evaluation, is routinely adopted. This paper reviews the CT evaluation in pulmonary hypertension with a particular focus on the cardiac causes, their subclassification into congenital systemic to pulmonary shunts and secondary to left heart disease, and their imaging features. It emphasises the use of a systematic approach to interpretation of CTPA examinations both in patients with known PAH and those with previously unsuspected disease.

“…Right ventricular conduction delay and hypertrophy are frequently seen in the presence of significant mitral valve insufficiency associated with cleft mitral valve 2 . The less common sinus venosus defect of SVC type, the P-wave axis in frontal plane in patients with sinus rhythm, is either left and superior or normal 7 . The chest X-ray film is often, but not always, abnormal in patients with significant ASD.…”

Abstract:We report the case of a 25-year-female presented with dyspnea & chest pain on exertion. The ECG showed signs of right ventricular overload. The chest X-ray showed an enlargement of central pulmonary arteries, pulmonary plethora and a small aortic knuckle. Atrial septal defect (ASD) was suspected and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) subsequently confirmed the presence of a large ostium secundum ASD. A surgical closure with an equine pericardium patch was performed. Two months after the surgical repair, the ECG and TTE showed the regression of signs of right ventricular overload.
