ABSTRACT

PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW: Percutaneous closure of sinus venosus atrial septal defects (ASD) using covered stent implantation is a new and promising minimally invasive technique. New imaging tools are used to ensure preoperative anatomical characterization and preoperative guidance, which are key procedural success factors. Here we will describe and analyze these recent developments. RECENT FINDINGS: Sinus venosus ASDs present a wide variety of anatomical features which must be described and analyzed using various imaging tools, including 3D technology. Percutaneous closure is challenging, but can hasten clinical recovery compared to the gold-standard conventional open-heart surgery. The feasibility of percutaneous closure relies on precise preoperative anatomical study and on real-time guidance using a multimodal fusion imaging process. Three-dimensional modeling of sinus venosus ASD is essential to understand the large anatomical panel encountered in this pathology. Multimodal fusion imaging guidance is very useful for performing sinus venosus ASD percutaneous closure in selected patients.

ABSTRACT

Pheochromocytoma is a rare tumor potentially life-threatening and associated with non specific and diverse symptomatology. Cardiac symptoms may mislead diagnosis; they could manifest as myocardial sideration concomitant to a hypertensive peak or supraventricular arythmia. We report a case of pheochromocytoma associated with hypokaliemia revealed by a myocardial ischemia with acute cardiac failure and severe left ventricular depression and complete reversal after surgery.
