Incomplete endothelialization and late dislocation after implantation of an Amplatzer septal occluder device.
A 64-year-old woman with a history of a large-sized secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) underwent successful percutaneous closure with a 34-mm Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) without apparent complications on April 25, 2002. Transthoracic echocardiography immediately following the closing procedure revealed that her ASO was well wedged, with no residual shunt or murmurs (Figure 1). At the third...
متن کاملLate Bacterial Endocarditis and Abscess Formation After Implantation of an Amplatzer Septal Occluder Device.
A 37-year-old man was referred to our emergency department after 4 days of a spiking fever of up to 40°C, myalgia, and new development of multiple, small, nontender erythematous macular lesions on his palms and soles compatible with Janeway lesions (Figure 1). He had a history of a large secundum atrial septal defect for which he underwent transcatheter closure with a 24-mm Amplatzer septal occ...
متن کاملLate Migration of Amplatzer Septal Occluder Device to the Descending Thoracic Aorta
Percutaneous closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) has become an increasingly common procedure. Serious complications of the procedure, such as cardiac migration, are rare, and usually occur <72 hours after device placement. In this report, we present the case of a patient who underwent successful surgical treatment for the migration of an ASD occluder device to the thoracic aorta 12 months aft...
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 ...
