In addition, the US FDA approval for the GORE CARDIOFORM
Septal Occluder was supported by positive results from the Gore REDUCE Clinical Study, which demonstrated its safety and efficacy with a Gore device plus antiplatelet therapy compared to antiplatelet therapy alone in patients with a PFO, revealed the company.
The patient was diagnosed with isolated
septal myocardial infarction.
The VSD was visualized after pulling the
septal leaflet towards right atrium.
The mechanism may be associated with improper placement of the occluder on the tricuspid
septal leaflets, migration of the occluder, shape memory of nithinol wires, or rupture of the chordae tendineae18.
The present study was designed to determine the role of
septal nuclei in modulating sexual behavior as very little experimental evidence is available on the effect of the
septal lesion on sexual behavior in male rats.
The study included 52 patients who had nasal
septal deviation.
(3) Anatomic causes include inferior turbinate hypertrophy,
septal deviation, and nasal valve dysfunction.
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease characterized by hypertrophy of the interventricular septum, obstruction of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT), and frequently, systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve.[1],[2],[3] Although medical intervention can provide relief of symptoms, a considerable number of patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy remain symptomatic, and in these participants, invasive interventions such as percutaneous transluminal
septal myocardial ablation (PTSMA) and modified Morrow
septal myectomy (MMSM) are established treatment options.[4],[5] Extended
septal myectomy can significantly relieve obstruction of LVOT and improve main complaints.[6],[7],[8] However, experience with myectomy is limited at many centers.

Low-risk cardiogenic embolic cerebral infarction was determined if mitral stenosis, patent foramen ovale and atrial
septal defect were observed, and high-risk cardiogenic embolic cerebral infarction was determined if severe left ventricular dysfunction, aortic atherosclerosis, left atrium tumor, severe mitral valve injury and left ventricular thrombus were observed.
Mohammad Kashif Shaikh informed about the diagnosis of an Atrial
Septal Defect (ASD) in a newborn or an older child should prompt consultation with a pediatric cardiologist.
Since our patient had a rather large ASD that did not have sufficient residual
septal rim tissue, percutaneous and robotic approaches were not feasible.
