Unroofing coronary sinus: between ostium of CS to RA and LA septum primum and endocardial cushion defect 4. ASD ostium primum Rudolph chapter 7

4. Sinus venosus : 3 – 10% ASD ostiom serondun: more common F / M = 2/1 5% ASD + PS (valvuler) Muller, chapter 22

5. PVR abn < 10% AsD ostium secondum almost always ASD SV Associates PVRAb Braunwald

7. Morphologic and Embriologic considerations Septum primum grows from posterosuperior side (SVC side) toward A-V junction where endocardial cushion separotes Atria from ventricles. The lower part of the septum primum is completed by fusion with endocardial cushion tissue. Rudolph chapter 7

8. Some fenestrations develop in midportion of septum primum. Septum secrodum just grows in the posterosuperior portion of IAS (near SVC) but right to the septum primum. It grows toward the AV junction and it partly covers the central hole of septum prinum. It has a semilunar edge which is concave toward TV. Rudolph chapter 7

11. 1. Sinus venosus defects: septum primum or secondum 2. Unroofing CS: the well between CS and LA, may involved a portion of septum or whole septum and are frequently associated with LPSVC Rudolph chapter 7

12. LAP 1-2 mmHg >RAP two ventricles fill with one pressure so RV will be distended. Rudolph chapter 7

13. The degree of left to right Shout depends on the 1- The size of the defect 2- Filling pressure of ventricles Braunwald

14. Infants Large defects: QP/Qs > 2.5 : 1  Produce symptoms Medium size defects: do not cause symptoms during infancy and early childhood Rudolph chapter 7

15. ASD beyond infancy The majority of children even those with large defeats do not experience symptoms. Unlike VSD most of them tend to be smaller with growing, ASD usually grows in proportion to heart size and there is evidence suggesting that some defects may become larger as age increase. Rudolph chapter 7

16. 40% ASDs in infants will close spontonously ASD < 3 mm in first 3 months  always close ASD > 8 mm is unlikely to close Muller, chapter 22

17. Spontanous closure of ASD may occur within the 1 year of life. < 7 mm in neonatal period may reduce in size and require no intervention Braunwald

26. The main concerns in individuals with ASD are 1. PV Resistance 2. Atrial arrhythmia 3. Cardiac failure Rudolph chapter 7

27. The association of PVD and ASD are infrequent during childhood. Singificant PVD is unusual before age of 25-30 years. Beyond this age, PVD occurred in 5-10% ASDs and is related to high altitude PVD f/M : 2 : 1 Altitude > 4000 ft PVD in earlier ages Rudolph chapter 7

28. PVR PVR in ASD usually is normal, 1 unit / m2 3  considerable Rudolph chapter 7
