This volume covers everything you need to know about atrial
communications; the pathology, anatomy, physiology, and natural
history of treated and untreated patients; indications for
intervention; surgical techniques currently used to close such
defects; and transcatheter closure of these defects using approved
and investigational devices. It also presents imaging techniques
for guiding such procedures--including transthoracic echo,
tranesophageal echo, intracardiac echo, and 2-D and 3-D
technology--and using MRI to evaluate patients. Every device
currently available, both approved and nonapproved, is discussed in
detail along with technical analyses of how to close defects. In
addition to addressing the association between PFOs and strokes and
migraines, the contributors examine the status of all trials
addressing transcatheter closure of ASDs and PFOs.
