An 8-year-old asymptomatic child was referred for surgical repair of coronary sinus atrial septal defect resulting in significant left-to-right shunt and right chamber volume overload. The septal fenestration was located near to its drainage site into the right atrium. Due to this seemingly favourable anatomy, transcatheter closure of the septal defect was performed using an Amplatzer Septal Occluder device. The echocardiographic postprocedural evaluation imaged the occluding device almost perpendicular to the atrial septum, seemingly floating above the mitral valve orifice, like an alien spaceship inside the heart.
一名 8 岁无症状儿童因冠状窦房间隔缺损导致明显的左向右分流和右心腔容量超负荷而被转介接受手术修复。房间隔的开窗位于其进入右心房的引流部位附近。由于这种看似有利的解剖结构,使用 Amplatzer 房间隔封堵器经导管闭合了房间隔缺损。超声心动图术后评估显示封堵器几乎垂直于房间隔,似乎漂浮在二尖瓣瓣口上方,就像一颗外星飞船在心脏内。
