Late erosion of Amplatzer septal occluder device resulting in cardiac tamponade [PDF]
Transcatheter device closure of atrial septal defects (ASDs) is a minimally invasive technique that offers an alternative to conventional surgical repair. There are risks imposed by this technique; however, they compare favourably with risks of surgical closure.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Perventricular device closure of muscular VSD in small infants is a less invasive option than surgical closure under cardiopulmonary bypass and offers better outcomes than palliative pulmonary artery banding. However, the specific risk factors that could affect procedural success and optimal outcomes have not been ...

Atrial septal defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart defects. Intracardiac repair via midline sternotomy or right thoracotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass have been considered the standard treatment for the closure of atrial septal defects,

Device Closure of Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defect: Choosing Between Amplatzer Occluders [PDF]
Background: Off-label device closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defect (pmVSD) is well reported in the literature with encouraging results. However, technical challenges may be encountered. Objectives: To evaluate and compare feasibility, technical aspects, procedural outcomes, and mid-term follow-up of pmVSD closure using Amplatzer ...

ABSTRACT Background To reduce complications associated with metal occluders, bioabsorbable occluders have been implanted for perimembranous ventricular septal defects (VSDs) via transthoracic approach. This study investigates the feasibility of echocardiography‐guided percutaneous closure of perimembranous VSDs in children using bioabsorbable occluders,

Atrial tachyarrhythmias following percutaneous device closure of secundum atrial septal defects
Background: Atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATs) are a major source of morbidity in the atrial septal defect (ASD) patient cohort. The optimal timing and approach of anti-arrhythmic intervention is currently unclear.

The transventricular-transseptal access to the aortic root: a new route for extrapleural trans-catheter aortic stent-valve implantation [PDF]
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of transventricular-transseptal approach (TVSA) for extrapleural trans-catheter aortic valved stent implantation via a subxyphoidian access. Methods: In five porcine experiments (52.3±10.

Cardiac perforation after device closure of atrial septal defects with the Amplatzer septal occluder
Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO)-associated cardiac perforation (CP) at our institution prompted this retrospective review.Cardiac perforation is a rare complication after transcatheter atrial septal defect (ASD) closure.To identify CP after transcatheter ASD closure with ASO, cardiac events (CE) describing definite CP, hemopericardium, pericardial ...

ABSTRACT The patent foramen ovale (PFO), present in 25% of the population, can cause paradoxical embolism and stroke. Transcatheter PFO closure is the gold standard for recurrent embolism with significant inter‐atrial shunting, with recent trials confirming its superiority in reducing ischemic stroke recurrence over medical therapy.

Spontaneous Resolution of Hemolysis After Ventricular Septal Defect Closure With an Amplatzer Device
A persistent ductus arteriosus occluder was implanted in the ventricular septum (arrow), causing hemolysis due to a persistent shunt and outflow obstruction. Following a cautious wait‐and‐see approach, the hemolysis resolved after device remodeling. ABSTRACT A wait and see approach can be maintained in cases with mechanical hemolysis after percutaneous
