From March 1965 through August 1991, 703 patients with secondary atrial septal defect were treated surgically in our hospital. Among them, 32 cases (4.6%) were associated with mitral valve disease. The mitral valve lesion was repaired at the same time of closure of the atrial septal defect. The operative mortality was 6.3% and there was no late death. Follow-up study showed that heart function of the patients was improved obviously and most of them have resumed work or study. The clinical features, incidence, etiology, pathology and surgical techniques of secondary atrial septal defect associated with mitral valve disease were discussed.

D008297	Male		Males
D008875	Middle Aged	An adult aged 45 - 64 years.	Middle Age
D008944	Mitral Valve Insufficiency	Backflow of blood from the LEFT VENTRICLE into the LEFT ATRIUM due to imperfect closure of the MITRAL VALVE. This can lead to mitral valve regurgitation.

D008946	Mitral Valve Stenosis	Narrowing of the passage through the MITRAL VALVE due to FIBROSIS, and CALCINOSIS in the leaflets and chordal areas. This elevates the left atrial pressure which, in turn, raises pulmonary venous and capillary pressure leading to bouts of DYSPNEA and TACHYCARDIA during physical exertion. RHEUMATIC FEVER is its primary cause.

D006344	Heart Septal Defects, Atrial	Developmental abnormalities in any portion of the ATRIAL SEPTUM resulting in abnormal communications between the two upper chambers of the heart. Classification of atrial septal defects is based on location of the communication and types of incomplete fusion of atrial septa with the ENDOCARDIAL CUSHIONS in the fetal heart. They include ostium primum, ostium secundum, sinus venosus, and coronary sinus defects.
