==Sinus Venosus Atrial Septal Defect==
==Pathophysiology==
* In this type of atrial septal defect the common wall between the coronary sinus and the left atrium is not developed.  
1) [[Sinus venosus ASD]] is commonly found to be associated with [[partial anomalous pulmonary venous return]].


* Some patients with coronary sinus atrial septal defects may also have a persistent left superior vena cava.
2) In the presence of [[partial anomalous pulmonary venous return]] ([[pulmonary veins]] draining into the [[right atrium]] instead of the [[left atrium]]),  [[atrial septal defect]] should be corrected by placement of patch over the defect. In larger defects, it is essential to ensure the usage of a synthetic patch to be placed strategically, to allow [[Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection|anomalous pulmonary venous drainage]], to be diverted to the [[left atrium]].
3)  In this case, [[Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection|anomalous pulmonary venous drainage]] must be carefully monitored and assessed as compromise of pulmonary venous return due to redirection could lead to [[Pulmonary hypertension|pulmonary venous hypertension]].


* A [[sinus venosus ASD]] is a type of atrial septum defect in which the defect in the septum involves the venous inflow of either the [[superior vena cava]] or the [[inferior vena cava]].
==Natural History, Complications and Prognosis==


* A [[sinus venosus ASD]] that involves the [[superior vena cava]] makes up 2 to 3% of all interatrial communication. It is located at the junction of the [[superior vena cava]] and the [[right atrium]]. It is frequently associated with anomalous drainage of the right-sided [[pulmonary vein]]s into the right atrium (instead of the normal drainage of the pulmonary veins into the left atrium).<!--

Overview

During fetal development, the septal wall may fail to fuse causing an atrial septal defect to arise. A sinus venosus atrial septal defect is one such type of malformation arising from the irregular development of the septum and the superior vena cava or the inferior vena cava.

Pathophysiology

1) Sinus venosus ASD is commonly found to be associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return.

2) In the presence of partial anomalous pulmonary venous return (pulmonary veins draining into the right atrium instead of the left atrium), atrial septal defect should be corrected by placement of patch over the defect. In larger defects, it is essential to ensure the usage of a synthetic patch to be placed strategically, to allow anomalous pulmonary venous drainage, to be diverted to the left atrium.

3) In this case, anomalous pulmonary venous drainage must be carefully monitored and assessed as compromise of pulmonary venous return due to redirection could lead to pulmonary venous hypertension.

Natural History, Complications and Prognosis

1) Good post-surgical prognosis irrespective of the patient's age at surgery.

2) Surgery for sinus venosus ASD is complex compared to other atrial septal defect and can cause stenosis of the superior vena cava or pulmonary veins, residual shunting and SA node dysfunction.

Diagnosis

Echocardiography

Echocardiography is the preferred diagnostic tool in the evaluation of an atrial septal defect. Out of the different types of echocardiographic modalities that can be used, transesophageal echocardiography can be used for all types of atrial septal defects. Trials have shown transesophageal echocardiography to be superior in diagnosing sinus venosus ASD compared to transthoracic echocardiography.[1][2] Sinus venosus atrial septal defect has posterior location. Due to this, transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) becomes more suitable for diagnosing it because of the proximity of the transducer to the defect. [3]

Studies have found transesophageal echocardiography to be superior in diagnosing sinus venosus ASD compared to transthoracic echocardiography.[1] [2]

An sinus venosus defect can be identified on an echocardiogram in many ways.

  • A subcostal 4 chamber view by paying special attention to the superior and posterior portions of the atria.
  • Can be visualized at the top of the septum near the insertion of the superior vena cava where it occurs.
  • If echo shows right ventricle overload and no ASD, consider anomalous pulmonary vein.
