Echo Masterclass—Adult Congenital Heart Disease

Rethink echo views in congenital heart disease. Here, you’ll learn how to differentiate chambers in a familiar adult echo orientation and master sequential segmental analysis.

In this chapter, you’ll learn how to use transthoracic echocardiography to detect and master the evaluation of simple shunts commonly seen in adults.

Here, you’ll learn how atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD) develop, how to differentiate between variations of AVSD, and what to look for in a patient after an AVSD repair.

Learn how to identify the level of left-sided outflow obstruction—from subaortic stenosis to around the bend in the aortic arch—and how to assess a repaired coarctation.

Explore the effects of coronary artery disease (CAD) on young people. Here, you’ll cover Kawasaki disease in toddlers and the differences between acquired CAD and congenital CAD.

Ebstein anomaly isn't solely a valve problem. In this chapter, you’ll learn how to use echo to identify and assess patients with Ebstein anomaly and common lesions linked to it.

Master right ventricular outflow lesions. Here, you’ll learn how to recognize pulmonary stenosis, identify outflow lesions, and diagnose double-chambered right ventricles.

This chapter dives deep into Tetralogy of Fallot. Learn all about its anatomical findings, repair techniques, and the common complications seen in adulthood.

Here, find out why you'll never see an adult patient with an unrepaired transposition. Learn how to distinguish between different types and recognize various repair techniques.
