Secundum Atrial Septal Defect With Early Presentation of Eisenmenger Syndrome and Right-Heart Failure: A Rare Case Report and Literature Review

Authors: Jahanzeb Malik , Umar Ikram, Ahmed Kamal, Ahsan Khalid Sr., Tayyaba Zahid

Abstract: Eisenmenger syndrome, the most advanced form of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), poses a considerable risk to the survival and quality of life of patients. It is more commonly seen in large intra-cardiac defects like ventricular septal defects (VSD) or patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and rarely in atrial septal defects (ASD). Early diagnosis is the single most important step in the definitive management of the condition; otherwise, only conservative treatment can be offered. In this report, we present the case of a 20-year-old female patient diagnosed with Eisenmenger syndrome secondary to a large secundum ASD. The patient responded well to medical treatment.
