Figura 1. – Imagens usando agente de contraste ecocardiográfico (SonoVue), injetado na primeira septal (Painel A) e na segunda septal (Painel B), setas amarelas. Considerando que a área de miocárdio perfundido pela segunda septal era maior, envolvendo a banda moderadora de VD, a decisão foi feita pela oclusão alcoólica da primeira septal. AD: átrio direito; AE: átrio esquerdo; VD: ventrículo direito; VE: ventrículo esquerdo.
Figure 1
Figure 1. – Images using echocardiography enhanced agent (SonoVue) injected at first septal coronary (Panel A) and second septal coronary (Panel B). Once the perfused myocardial area from the second septal coronary was larger and involved the RV’s moderator band, the decision to occlude the first septal coronary was taken. RA: right atria; LA: left atria; RV: right ventricle; LV: left ventricle.
