Multi-fenestrated ASD- mfASD

The prevalence of ASD is 0.88 per 1000 adults. The most common type of ASD is a secundum - a true deficiency in the region of the fossa ovalis. @iamritu @echo_stepbystep @alexsfelixecho @NMerke FIGURE 32-1 Development of ...

Standardized #EchoFirst evaluation includes TTE, TEE, Doppler & 3DEcho for assessment of rims for suitability for device closure, drainage of pulmonary veins, exclusion of sinus venosus-type ASDs, etc.

TEE was ordered for best understanding of anatomy. #EchoFirst finding: multi-fenestrated ASD. @GoncalvesCortez @fljsoares @echotalk @marciomp50 @RODRIGOVISCONT1 @mlimaMD @masiqueirajr @FilipeMarra @alexandre_aby @AleJoslin @cardiopedhnn @mariovar55 @gonzaeperez

Transcatheter closure is possible in some cases of mfASDs, however requires careful investigation of the anatomy of the defects and their surroundings. Caveats: sometimes we need to go in slow motion or even frame by frame for a better understanding of anatomy.

#3DEcho can help. I start my 3D assessment identifying anatomical landmarks (MV, AV, SVC, IVC) that help us w/spatial orientation

Assuming the RA perspective, we can observe a larger and more central ASD, others defects, rims and their relationships w/ surrounding structures.

In this patient, posteroinferior rim (towards the inferior vena cava) was considered insufficient and so TC closure was contraindicated.
