A 31-year-old woman presented with dyspnea on exertion
(functional class III). O2 saturation was 83 % in the room air
and reached 91 % with O2. Physical examination revealed a
loud S2 and clubbing. Electrocardiography showed rightaxis deviation and R > S in the right precordial leads.

The shunt was measured as follows:
Pulmonary annulus = 2.8 cm, pulmonary velocity–time
integral (VTI) =11 cm, HR =90
Aortic annulus =1.8 cm, aortic VTI = 23 cm

The Qp/Qs was 1.14, which is relatively small compared to
the size of the ASD.

Nasal O2 was commenced for the patient for 10 min.
Subsequently, the measurements of the shunts and PVR were
repeated: no signifi cant change had occurred. Accordingly,
treatment with sildenafi l and bosentan was started, and she
was referred for catheterism
Diagnosis
Our patient was diagnosed with an ASD with Eisenmenger’s
syndrome.
Comment
Medical treatment with bosentan and sildenafi l was recommended for the patient and follow-up echocardiography
[ 24 – 28 ].
Lesson
1. When there is right ventricular free wall hypertrophy,
there are two possible diagnoses: pulmonary stenosis and
pulmonary hypertension.
2. On transthoracic echocardiography, the ASD fl ow is
always red when there is a left-to-right shunt. The color
blue in the ASD is in favor of the passage of blood from
right to left and an increased PVR.
3. It is said that patients with ASDs go toward Eisenmenger’s
syndrome with lesser degrees of PAP. If in other left-toright shunts such as ventricular septal defects a PVR of
less than 7 units is considered suitable for intervention, in
the ASD the fi gure is 5 units.
4. In case of a PVR ≥ 5 units in an ASD, the reactivity of the
pulmonary vascular bed to vasodilators like oxygen
should be checked [ 7 ]. A reduction in the PVR ≥33 % [ 2 ]
or reduction of mean pulmonary arterial pressure
≥10 mmHg to reach an absolute value of less than
40 mmHg is considered as a good response [ 29 , 30 ].
5. The defi nite diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension is made by catheterism. A mean PAP greater than
25 mmHg is considered as pulmonary hypertension
[ 29 ].
6. In Eisenmenger’s syndrome, the shunt is right to left or
bidirectional, and the PAP is near systemic.
7. In patients with ASD and Eisenmenger’s syndrome,
genetic mutation has been suggested [ 31 ].

A 57-year-old woman, who had undergone device closure
for an atrial septal defect (ASD) (ostium secundum type)
2 months previously, was referred for transthoracic echocardiography. She had no symptoms.

Diagnosis
The ASD device closure yielded excellent results without
any residual shunt and obstructive effect on the other organs.
Lesson
Some of the possible complications of ASD device closure
include partial obstruction of left ventricular outfl ow tract
due to device embolization [ 32 ] and aorto-right atrial
fi stula [ 33 ].

Diagnosis
ASD ostium secundum with adequate rims and prominent
Chiari network.
Comment
The patient was referred for ASD device closure.
Lesson
1. For differentiation of the eustachian valve from the Chiari
network, there are two essential points: (a) the eustachian
valve originates from the posterior border of the inferior
vena cava and continues up to the fossa ovalis, while the
Chiari network originated near the orifi ce of the inferior vena
cava and serves as the valve of the coronary sinus, and (b)
usually the Chiari network is highly mobile. Both the eustachian valve and Chiari network are normal variation [ 34 ].
2. When ASD produces a remarkable shunt, the right ventricle becomes dilated.
(a) Severe right ventricular dilation usually represents
signifi cant left-to-right shunt (Qp/Qs>2) [ 2 ], diagnosis of
severe right ventricular dilation is made by the apex
which is formed by the right ventricle, and the ratio of the
right ventricular to left ventricular diameter is more than
1 in the apical four-chamber view [ 35 ]. (b) Moderate
right ventricular dilation is diagnosed by the apex equally
made from the right and left ventricles, and the ratio of
the right ventricular to left ventricular diameter is equal
to 1. (c) Mild right ventricular dilation is present when
the ratio of the right ventricular to left ventricular diameter is more than 2/3, but the right ventricle does not
reach to the apex [ 35 ].

A 24-year-old woman was referred to our echocardiography
laboratory for the evaluation of the feasibility of the
Amplatzer device closure of an atrial septal defect (ASD).
Transthoracic echocardiography revealed severe right ventricular dilation and a large ASD (ostium secundum type).

44
Diagnosis
The patient was diagnosed with an extremely large ASD
(ostium secondum type) (42 mm) with severe TR and signifi cant annulus dilation. The tricuspid annulus was 43 mm in size.
Comment
Considering the large ASD and severe TR with annulus dilation, surgery (ASD closure and tricuspid annuloplasty) was
recommended.
Lesson
1. Large ASDs (ostium secundum type) are not suitable for
device closure. ASDs larger than 35 mm may need special techniques [ 17 ].
2. Even mild TR with signifi cant annulus dilation (≥40 mm
or >21 mm/m
2
) at the time of cardiac surgery should be
repaired [ 36 ].
