Recurrent Strokes After Gore Septal Occluder Device Closure of Atrial Septal Defect
Canadian Journal of Cardiology, 2017We report a case of recurrent strokes in a healthy teenager after complete closure of atrial septal defect with Gore Septal Occluder (W.L. Gore and Associates, Newark, DE) device. The disk of the device produced a friction injury to the left atrial endocardium promoting thrombus formation with subsequent embolization to the brain requiring surgical ...

Managing a traumatic ventricular septal defect with atrial septal defect occluder device
Cardiology in the Young, 2012AbstractTraumatic ventricular septal defects are rare complications of blunt and penetrating chest trauma. Patients are usually referred because of shock or cardiac tamponade. Focusing on the critical condition of the patient leads to missing the presence of traumatic ventricular septal defects.

Dislocation of Amplatzer Septal Occluder Device after Closure of Secundum Atrial Septal Defect
Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography, 2010Atrial septal defect transcatheter occlusion techniques have become an alternative to surgical procedures. With the increasing use of this new technology, several complications have been identified. The authors present the case of a patient who was admitted to the hospital for primary percutaneous closure of a secundum atrial septal defect.

The Amplatzer®Septal Occluder, a transcatheter device for atrial septal defect closure
Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2008Transcatheter device closure of secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) has been widely accepted and is becoming the standard treatment of this malformation. Among the devices used for transcatheter closure, the Amplatzer Septal Occluder is the first device to receive full approval from the US FDA for clinical use in patients with secundum ASD. It is safe,

Closure of Chronic Bronchopleural Fistula Using Atrial Septal Occluder Device
Journal of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology, 2014Chronic persistent bronchopleural fistulae (BPF) are challenging management problems. The management of BPF includes various surgical and medical procedures and of great value is the use of bronchoscopy and different devices. In high-risk surgical patients, bronchoscopic procedures serve as a temporary bridge until the patient's clinical condition ...

Percutaneous rescue of left ventricular embolized amplatzer septal occluder device
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2008AbstractTranscatheter atrial septal defect (ASD) closure has proven to be safe and effective, and it is rapidly becoming the standard treatment for secundum‐type ASDs. However, device embolization occurs in about 0.55% of cases, regardless of ASD and device size and/or physician's expertise. Percutaneous retrieval of the embolized device is possible in

A New Minimally Invasive Technique to Occlude Ventricular Septal Defect Using an Occluder Device
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2008This study was to evaluate ventricular septal defect occlusion using a lower mini-sternotomy approach.Eleven cases with ventricular septal defect underwent general anesthesia and a 3 to 4 cm lower mini-sternotomy incision was made. Using transesophageal echocardiography, the occluder was released using a mono-tubed unit.All cases were occluded ...

There is an 80-90% mortality rate within the first 2 months of the occurrence of a post-infarction ventricular septal defect (VSD) with medical treatment alone. The muscular VSD presents a technical problem for the surgeon. Surgical treatment was unsuccessful in two patients.

Transcatheter closure has been a recognised treatment strategy for multiple atrial septal defects (mASDs). This study aimed to examine the feasibility, effectiveness, and safety of transcatheter closure of mASDs using dual Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) devices.We retrospectively reviewed 34 patients who underwent transcatheter closure of mASDs using ...
