Percutaneous Forceps Retrieval of an Embolized Amplatzer Duct Occluder
Transcatheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus with the Amplatzer duct occluder shows excellent results. However, there is a risk of device embolization after deployment. We report the case of a 33-year-old man in whom an embolized Amplatzer device was retrieved from the right pulmonary artery by a percutaneous method. We also review this uncommon severe complication and offer technical tips...
متن کاملTranscatheter retrieval of embolized AMPLATZER Septal Occluder.
In selected patients, transcatheter closure of atrial septal defects with the AMPLATZER Septal Occluder has yielded excellent results. However, there is a slight risk of device embolization after deployment. We report the case of a 26-year-old woman in whom an embolized AMPLATZER device was retrieved percutaneously from the right pulmonary artery. We also discuss important technical principles ...
متن کاملPercutaneous Retrieval of Embolized Amplatzer Septal Occluder after Treatment of Double Atrial Septal Defect: A Case Report
Embolization of the occlusion device after percutaneous closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) is a potential disastrous complication. The usual site of embolization is the right side of the heart including pulmonary artery, but the device embolization to the extracardiac aorta is extremely rare. Here, we report a successful percutaneous retrieval case of the embolized Amplatzer Septal Occluder ...
متن کاملPercutaneous closure of an aorta to left atrium fistula with an Amplatzer duct occluder.
We describe percutaneous closure of an unusual paravalvular leak, with a communication from the noncoronary cusp of the aortic valve to the left atrium adjacent to a St. Jude mitral valve prosthesis, in the absence of an infection. The patient presented with worsening dyspnea and edema. The anatomic location of the valve annulus adjacent to the noncoronary cusp underlies the etiology of this co...
متن کاملPercutaneous retrieval of an interatrial septal occluder device embolized into the aortic arch.
Percutaneous closure of secundum atrial septal defects (ASD) may be complicated by immediate embolization. We report on a 35-year-old woman who underwent percutaneous device closure for a secundum ASD. The diameter of the defect was measured as 4 mm by two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography and a 7-mm Figulla ASD occluder device was implanted without prior balloon sizing of the defect...
