Percutaneous closure of an atrial septal defect in the cardiac catheterization laboratory requires noninvasive imaging to assist in characterization of the atrial septal defect and deployment of the device. Transesophageal echocardiography is the modality most often used in these circumstances. Transesophageal echocardiographic guidelines exist for the assessment and guidance for atrial septal defect closures, but these guidelines do not mention transgastric views. In this case, we demonstrate that transgastric views are helpful in describing the atrial septal defect, especially as it concerns the inferior vena cava rim.
在心脏导管实验室经皮闭合房间隔缺损需要无创成像来辅助对房间隔缺损进行特征描述以及装置的植入。经食管超声心动图是这些情况下最常用的方式。目前存在经食管超声心动图评估和指导房间隔缺损闭合的指南，但这些指南未提及经胃视图。在本病例中，我们证明经胃视图有助于描述房间隔缺损，尤其是涉及下腔静脉边缘的情况。
