Transcatheter closure of atrial septal defects.
Transcatheter closure of atrial septal defects has evolved significantly over the last 20 years. Transcatheter closure has replaced surgical closure for the treatment of most secundum atrial septal defectsat the current time. A major reason for this is the lower morbidity of transcatheter closure procedures. Several closure devices have come into clinical use. The Amplatzer septal occluder (AGA...
متن کاملOutcome of Transcatheter Closure of Oval Shaped Atrial Septal Defect with Amplatzer Septal Occluder
PURPOSE For the successful completion of transcatheter closure of atrial septal defects with the Amplatzer septal occluder, shape of the defects should be considered prior to selecting the device. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results of a transcatheter closure of oval shaped atrial septal defect.

متن کاملIntegrated Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Occlusion and Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Introduction: Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart diseases during childhood. Today, ASD closure is done by occlutech device via cardiac catheterization. ASD repair with transcatheter technique has shown high closure rate. However, coexistence of severe pulmonary stenosis and large defect in atrial septum is rare. When these two problems coexist, the result is i...
متن کاملEchocardiographic visualization of laceration of atrial septum during balloon sizing of atrial septal defect.
Transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) has become an accepted alternative to surgery. A number of complications associated with ASD device closure have been recognized but most are rare or minor in severity. We report a rare complication of atrial septal laceration during transcatheter closure of secundum ASD. We discuss the diagnostic confusion, which resulted in the decision for ...
متن کاملEmergent Surgical Intervention for Embolization of Atrial Septal Defect Closure Device
The percutaneous transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defect has recently become an increasingly widespread alternative to surgical closure in many centers. Although immediate, short, and intermediate term results of percutaneous transcatheter septal closure are promising, the procedure is not free from inherent complications that could be lethal. We report a case of device embolizat...
