Secundum ASD © 2015 Published by Elsevier Masson SAS on behalf of the Éditions françaises de radiologie. Introduction Major technical advances in computed tomography (CT) in recent years have made it pos- sible to use multidetector row CT (MDCT) in the field of cardiac imaging. Besides coronary arteries, ECG-gated cardiac MDCT provides high-resolution images of all cardiac structures. It is therefore important for radiologists to understand and be able to analyze the normal anatomical structures, variants and diseases of these different structures. This article provides an analysis of the interatrial septum (IAS) based on a pictorial review. After a short embryological and anatomical description, we will illustrate the nor- mal anatomy and variants of the IAS, anomalies such as patent foramen ovale (PFO), congenital diseases such as atrial septal defects (ASD) as well as tumors and tumoral-like processes that develop on the IAS. Abbreviations: ASA, atrial septal aneurysm; ASD, atrial septal defect; ECG, electrocardiogram; IAS, interatrial septum; IVC, inferior vena cava; IVS, interventricular septum; LV, left ventricle; M, myxoma; PFO, patent foramen ovale; RSPV, right superior pulmonary vein; RV, right ventricle; SVC, superior vena cava; MIP, maximal intensity projection; TEE, transesophageal echocardiography; TV, tricuspid valve.

To this aim, we evaluated the correlation, in terms of severity, between the degree of endothelial dysfunction (by L-Arg/ADMA ratio), the methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) genotype, and the interatrial septum (IAS) phenotype in subject with a history of stroke. Methods and Results: L-Arg, ADMA, and MTHFR genotypes were evaluated; the IAS phenotype was assessed by transesophageal echocardiography.

  • Cardiovascular System Note: the Cardiovascular System Develops Early (Week-3), Enabling the Embryo to Grow Beyond the Short
    Cardiovascular System Note: The cardiovascular system develops early (week-3), enabling the embryo to grow beyond the short distances over which diffusion is efficient for transferring 2O , CO2, and cellular nutrients & wastes. Heart: Beginning as a simple tube, the heart undergoes differential growth into a four chambered struc- ture, while it is pumping blood throughout the embryo and into extra-embryonic membranes. Angiogenesis begins with blood island formation in splanchnic mesoderm of the yolk sac and allantois. Vessel formation occurs when island vesicles coalesce, sprout buds, and fuse to form vascular channels. Hematopoiesis (blood cell formation) occurs in the liver and spleen and later in the bone marrow. The transition from fetal to adult circulation involves new vessel formation, vessel merger, and degeneration of early vessels. Formation of a Tubular Heart: The first evidence of heart develop- amnionic cavity ment is bilateral vessel formation within ectoderm the cardiogenic plate (splanchnic meso- embryo derm situated anterior to the embryo). The cardiogenic plate moves ven- tral to the pharynx as the head process cardiogenic yolk sac endoderm mesoderm grows upward and outward. plate Bilateral endocardial tubes meet at the midline & fuse into a single endo- embryo cardial tube, the future heart.

  • Atrial-Myxomas.Pdf
    Atrial myxomas Atrial myxomas are the most common primary heart tumors. They are benign intracavitary cardiac neoplasms and accounting for one-third to one-half of cases at postmortem and for about three quarter of tumors treated surgically (Braunwald 2001). Because of nonspecific symptoms, early diagnosis may be a challenge. Left atrial myxoma may or may not produce characteristic findings on auscultation. Most atrial myxomas, whether left or right, arise from the atrial septum, usually from the region of the limbus of fossa ovalis. About 10% have other sites of origin, particularly posterior wall, anterior wall and the appendages (in order of frequency) (McAllister 1979). (Two- dimensional echocardiography is the diagnostic procedure of choice. Most atrial myxomas are benign and can be removed by surgical resection. Pathophysiology Myxomas account for 40-50% of primary cardiac tumors. Approximately 90% are solitary and pedunculated, and 75-85% occur in the left atrial cavity. Up to 25% of cases are found in the right atrium. Most cases are sporadic. Approximately 10% are familial and are transmitted in an autosomal dominant mode. Multiple tumors occur in approximately 50% of familial cases and are more frequently located in the ventricle (13% vs 2% in sporadic cases). Myxomas are polypoid, round, or oval. They are gelatinous with a smooth or lobulated surface and usually are white, yellowish, or brown such as of the figures 1 and 2 Fig. 1 Pathology specimens of multiple small myxomas resected from the right atrial surface. Fig. 2 Pathology specimen of myxoma from the vicinity of the interatrial groove, after near-total resection.

Métodos: As medidas da excursão do septo primeiro (ESP) em direção ao átrio esquerdo (AE) e do diâmetro do forame oval (DFO) foram realizadas em corações de dez fetos humanos formolizados com 28 a 36 semanas. Os cortes histológicos foram feitos no FO, SP, septo segundo e nos AE e AD. Resultados: Os resultados da análise anatômica estão expressos em amplitude das medidas do DFO e da ESP: 3 fetos com idade gestacional (IG) presumida de 28 semanas, DFO (3,1-3,5 mm) e ESP (2,8-3,1 mm); 4 fetos com IG presumida de 34 semanas, DFO (3,3-3,5 mm) e ESP (4,0-5,0 mm); e 3 fetos com IG presumida de 36 semanas, DFO (3,3-4,5 mm) e ESP (6,0-9,0). Foram identificadas fibras musculares cardíacas no SP e no segundo. Conclusão: Pode-se sugerir que o SP apresenta caráter ativo devido às fibras musculares que o constituem, influenciando o fluxo sangüíneo através do FO, a mobilidade do SP e a sua excursão para o interior do AE.
