Echocardiography may be used as a diagnostic tool in the evaluation of an atrial septal defect. Common malformations of the septal wall include: ostium primum, ostium secundum, sinus venosus, and patent foramen ovale. Uncommonly, a defect may occur in the coronary sinus. Specific characteristics exist in echocardiography to identify these classifications of atrial septal defects.

==Echocardiography and Ostium Primum Defects==
Characteristics of ostium primum defects include:
*Seen best on an apical 4-chamber view.
*Occurs at the lower part of the septum near the valvular inlet.
*Associated with cleft mitral valve, ventricular septal defect, atriovalvular regurgitation, abnormal valvular leaflet insertions and other endocardial cushion defects.

==Echocardiography and Ostium Secundum Defects==
Characteristics of ostium secundum defects include:
*Seen best on subcostal 4-chamber view.
*Occurs in the middle of the septum in the area of the fossa ovalis.
*Most common type of ASD.

==Echocardiography and Sinus Venosus Defects==
Characteristics of sinus venosus defects include:
*Seen best in the subcostal four-chamber view by paying special attention to the superior and posterior portions of the atria.
*Occurs at the top of the septum near the insertion of the superior vena cava.

Overview

Echocardiography may be used as a diagnostic tool in the evaluation of an atrial septal defect. Common malformations of the septal wall include: ostium primum, ostium secundum, sinus venosus, and patent foramen ovale. Uncommonly, a defect may occur in the coronary sinus. Specific characteristics exist in echocardiography to identify these classifications of atrial septal defects.

Echocardiography and Coronary Sinus Defects

Characteristics of coronary sinus defects include:

  • Seen on a subcostal four-chamber view.
  • Occurs at the site of the coronary sinus drainage.
  • Very rare.
