  • Title: Improvement of biventricular function after transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect: a case report.
    Author: Lam YY, Yu CM.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2006 Nov; 68(5):775-7. PubMed ID: 17039533.
    Abstract:
    We report a 17-year-old man presented with palpitation. Echocardiography demonstrated secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) with marked right sided dilatation, indicating significant left to right intracardiac shunting. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging performed 3 months after transcatheter ASD closure demonstrated marked improvement in biventricular systolic function.
