Abstract Objective: To summarize the echocardiographic features of multiple foramen atrial septal defect(ASD) by observing 65 cases of multiple foramen atrial septal defect. Methods: We observed the ASDson multiple sections and angles by iE33 or iU22 diasonograph and analyzed the number, shape and size of ASD. According to the ultrasonic inspection results, different clinical intervention opinions were given according to different types of multiple foramen ASD. Results: There were 33 double foramen and 32 multiple foramen which were often associated with atrial septal aneurysm. The characteristic echocardiographic appearance included mesh-like echo interruption and different shunts from left to right in color modes. Conclusion: It is important to observe multiple foramen ASD on multiple sections and angles. Echocardiography has important clinical significance for multiple foramen ASD.
