Abstract

Objectives: The available literature lacks data on the comparison of the functions of the right atrium (RA) and left atrium (LA) between surgical atrial septal defect (ASD) closure and percutaneous device ASD closure at follow-up durations of longer than 1 year. We sought to evaluate the RA and LA functions in patients who underwent surgical or device ASD closure between 1 and 5 years postprocedurally. Methods: The study population included 30 patients who underwent device ASD closure and 30 who underwent surgical ASD closure, who were matched for the procedural time, age, and sex, in addition to 30 control participants. The RA and LA functions were evaluated with 2-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography. Results: The LA systolic and early diastolic strain and strain rate values and the RA early diastolic strain rate in the device closure group were more likely to be abnormal than in the control group. The RA systolic and late diastolic strain and strain rate values, the RA early diastolic strain rate, and the LA early diastolic strain in the surgical closure group were more likely to be abnormal than in the control group. The RA systolic strain and strain rate in the surgical closure group were more likely to be abnormal than in the device closure group. Conclusions: The LA reservoir and conduit functions and the RA contraction function in the patients who underwent device ASD closure and all of the RA functions and the LA conduit function in the patients who underwent surgical ASD closure were more likely to be abnormal than those in the control participants. The RA reservoir function in the surgical closure group was more likely to be abnormal than that in the device closure group. © 2018 by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine
