Abstract
In this case Cardiac CT angiography has been the tool for evaluation of Atrial septal aneurysm. This cardiac malformation is well identified by echocardiographic techniques and cardiac-MRI sequences. Clinical significance due to left atrial dysfunction and increased thrombo-embolic risk has been described independently and in association to cardiac wall defects as patent foramen ovale.
