Introduction
The atrial septal defects (ASD) are a group of common (1% of cardiac) congenital anomolies defects occuring in a number of different forms and more often in Females. Patients have been reported living to old age with forms of this cardiac abnormality[1], that is also common in Trisomy 21.
- patent foramen ovale - allows a continuation of the atrial shunting of blood, in 25% of people a probe patent foramen ovale (allowing a probe to bepassed from one atria to the other) exists.
- ostium secundum defect
- endocardial cushion defect involving ostium primum
- sinus venosus defect - contributes about 10% of all ASDs and occurs mainly in a common and less common form.
- Common ("usual type") - in upper atrial septum which is contiguous with the superior vena cava.
- Less common - at junction of the right atrium and inferior vena cava.
- common atrium

Oval Fossa Defect
The cross-section of a human heart shows defects (patent foramen ovale) in the floor of the oval fossa (fossa ovalis, annulus ovalis) shown by double headed white arrow due to deficiency and perforation of the flap valve derived from the primary atrial septum. The white arrow with black borders shows the intact infolded cranial rim of the fossa. |
Human heart has been sectioned across the short axis of the atrial chambers, and photographed from above, to show a persistently patent oval foramen (double headed red arrow). The double headed white arrow shows the normal rims of the oval fossa, which are overlapped by the flap valve, but in absence of fusion with the left atrial aspect of the rims. |

Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect
Sinus venosus atrial septal defects (SV-ASDs) are inter-atrial abnormality caused by a deficiency of the common wall between the superior or inferior vena cava and the right-sided pulmonary veins. The images below are MRI from a 25-year-old asymptomatic male[3] SSFP - Breath-held fat suppressed three-dimensional steady-state free precession.

History
1941
ATRIAL SEPTAL DEFECT.[4]
- "Patent foramen ovale and atrial (or auricular) septal defect (A.S.D.), though both characterised by an aperture in the atrial septum, are embryologically and pathologically different conditions."
Treatment
The surgical repair requires a cardiopulmonary bypass and is recommended in most cases of ostium secundum ASD, even though there is a significant risk involved. Ostium primum defects tend to present earlier and are often associated with endocardial cushion defects and defective mitral or tricuspid valves. In such cases, valve replacement may be necessary and the extended operation has a considerable chance of mortality.
- Increasingly closure by a transcatheter device closure has been applied.
- Repair of atrial septal defects on the perfused beating heart (atrial septal defect size 2 cm - 4.5 cm)[5]
Cardiovascular Abnormalities
Heart defects and preterm birth are the most common causes of neonatal and infant death. The long-term development of the heart combined with extensive remodelling and post-natal changes in circulation lead to an abundance of abnormalities associated with this system.
A UK study literature showed that preterm infants have more than twice as many cardiovascular malformations (5.1 / 1000 term infants and 12.5 / 1000 preterm infants) as do infants born at term and that 16% of all infants with cardiovascular malformations are preterm. (0.4% of live births occur at greater than 28 weeks of gestation, 0.9% at 28 to 31 weeks, and 6% at 32 to 36 weeks. Overall, 7.3% of live-born infants are preterm)[6]
"Baltimore-Washington Infant Study data on live-born cases and controls (1981-1989) was reanalyzed for potential environmental and genetic risk-factor associations in complete atrioventricular septal defects AVSD (n = 213), with separate comparisons to the atrial (n = 75) and the ventricular (n = 32) forms of partial AVSD. ...Maternal diabetes constituted a potentially preventable risk factor for the most severe, complete form of AVSD."[7]
In addition, there are in several congenital abnormalities that exist in adults (bicuspid aortic valve, mitral valve prolapse, and partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection) which may not be clinically recognized.
