Abstract:

The article discusses anatomical and clinical judgements on atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) as a primary cardiac structural abnormality. It presents current approaches to the classification of ASA and its echocardiographic diagnosis. Special attention is focused on the clinical significance of ASA as an isolated anomaly and concurrent with other structural abnormalities of the heart, especially from the standpoint of a risk of cardioembolic stroke.

Keywords:

atrial septal aneurysm
cardioembolic stroke
diagnosis
clinical significance
