## Abstract Echocardiographic left atrial dimension has been reported to correlate with leftβtoβright shunt (Qp/Qs) in children with isolated ventricular septal defect (VSD) or patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). In 17 children with isolated VSD, we prospectively compared Qp/Qs with the ratio of echoca

Transcatheter closure of atrial septal defects with left-to-right shunt induces an abrupt overload of the left ventricle that may cause acute heart failure in patients with left ventricular dysfunction. We report two cases of ostium secundum atrial septal defects associated with left ventricular dys
## Abstract The ability of twoβdimensional apex echocardiography to evaluate right ventricular and right atrial size was evaluated in 43 normal children and compared with 20 patients with a secundum atrial septal defect. From the apical four chamber view, the long axis length and short axis diamete
