| The types of defects found were as follows: absent coronary artery, enlarged coronary artery sinus, secundum-type atrial septal defects, aortic valve defect with fused leaflets creating aortic valvular stenosis, aortic valve defect with fenestrated leaflets, hypoplastic mitral valve annulus, hypoplastic tricuspid valve annulus, d-transposition, atrioventricular canal, and both membranous (subaortic) and muscular ventricular septal defects (Table 2). Less common manifestations include atrial septal defects, patent ductus arteriosus, and anomalous subclavian arteries. The ACUSON AcuNav[TM] ultrasound catheter family enables improved access during closure of atrial septal defects on smaller patients and left heart applications for both interventional cardiology and electrophysiology. |
