Perventricular Device Closure of Native Congenital Muscular Ventricular Septal Defects in Small Infants    ≤ 5 kg: Single‐Center Study of the Risk Factors for Failure of the Intervention and Non‐Optimal Outcome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2160-2173, October 1, 2025.
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 ...

Percutaneous Ultrasound‐Guided Closure of Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defects in Children Using Bioabsorbable Occluders—Feasibility and 1‐Year Follow‐Up

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 106, Issue 3, Page 2018-2025, September 1, 2025.
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,

Navigating the Uncertainties of Antithrombotic Therapy After Transcatheter Patent Foramen Ovale Closure: A Comprehensive Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 106, Issue 3, Page 2037-2047, September 1, 2025.
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

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
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

Unexpected difficulty during transcatheter device closure of atrial septal defect associated with right aortic arch

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2012
Right aortic arch (RAA) associated with isolated atrial septal defect (ASD) is very rare. We report successful closure of ASD associated with RAA using a 26-mm atrial septal occluder in a 30-year-old male patient.

Platypnea‐Orthodeoxia Syndrome Post‐Pneumonectomy: A Case of Right‐To‐Left Shunting and Successful PFO Closure

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Platypnea‐orthodeoxia syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by dyspnea (platypnea) and arterial desaturation (orthodeoxia) in the upright position, with symptom relief upon lying down. This syndrome is commonly associated with cardiac anomalies, particularly patent foramen ovale (PFO), where increased right atrial pressure facilitates ...

In Hospital Complications of Atrial Septal Defect Device Closure at Shahid Gangalal National Heart Centre, Kathmandu, Nepal

Journal of Nepal Health Research Council, 2020
Background: Atrial deptal defect device closure has become the preferred method in the treatment of atrial septal defect. We aim to study the in-hospital complications of atrial septal defect device closure procedure.
