Interatrial septal aneurysm

Discussion:

Aneurysm of interatrial septum is a rare but a well-recognized entity. Often found incidentally at 2D-Echo or CT coronary angiograms. The clinical significance is uncertain when it is an isolated abnormality. It may some times be associated with a patent foramen ovale or an atrial septal defect. There is a significantly increased risk of cryptogenic stroke when it is associated with a patent foramen ovale.
