Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is a useful imaging modality that is now being used more widely to assist in the percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects (ASD) and patent foramen ovales (PFO).
A 42 year old lady with a history of transient ischaemic attacks and migraine underwent percutaneous closure of an ASD. Intraprocedural ICE demonstrated a mammoth billowing multiperforated interatrial septal aneurysm in association with a secondum ASD.
ICE provides excellent adjuvant imaging during percutaneous closure of intracardiac shunts, in this case demonstrating a 'mammoth' interatrial septal aneurysm.
心腔内超声心动图(ICE)是一种有用的成像方式,目前正被更广泛地用于协助经皮闭合房间隔缺损(ASD)和卵圆孔未闭(PFO)。
一名有短暂性脑缺血发作和偏头痛病史的42岁女性接受了ASD的经皮闭合术。术中ICE显示巨大的、飘动的多孔房间隔瘤合并继发孔型ASD。
ICE在经皮闭合心内分流术中提供了出色的辅助成像,在本病例中显示了一个“巨大的”房间隔瘤。
