A member asked:
Is atrial septal aneurysm the same as atrial septal defect?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. Atrial septal defect is a hole in the septum due to congenital malformation. An atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) is a congenital malformation of the atrial septum characterized by bulging of the septum overlying the fossa ovalis region into either atrium.
