Treat-and-repair strategy for atrial septal defect with left ventricular systolic dysfunction: a case report of cardiac resynchronization therapy responder
This case demonstrates a novel treat-and-repair strategy for patients with ASD and LV systolic dysfunction. Although initial evaluation precluded ASD closure, CRT optimization and medical therapy for heart failure improved the haemodynamic status and facilitated ASD closure.
