Heart remodeling following transcatheter closure of ostium secundum type of interatrial communication.
Introduction The ostium secundum type of Interatrial communication is a condition that requires early closure of this defect because of its anatomicaland hemodynamic impact on the right ventricle and the pulmonary arterial bed. The correction of Atrial Septal Defect brings along with it,the reductio...
