A 50-year-old patient, born with tricuspid atresia, who had undergone TCPC, developed severe persistent cyanosis due to a right-to-left shunt through a...
متن کاملShort-term cardiopulmonary efficiency improvement after transcatheter baffle leak closure in a Mustard-operated patient.

Transcatheter procedures for baffle leakage closure have been anecdotally reported and shown to be both well tolerated and effective; however, no data have been reported to date about the short...

متن کاملPercutaneous closure of baffle leaks in patients with atrial switch operation for D-transposition of the great arteries.
2013, echocardiograms were recorded for 748 patients with atrial fibrillation but without a valve prosthesis, and with a CHADS2 score of 1 or more. The patients with valve lesions are shown in the Table. In terms of their valve lesions, 655 patients (87.6%) would correspond to the clinical profile of ARISTOTLE and ENGAGE AFTIMI 48 trials. Between 590 and 655 (78.9% and 87.6%) would correspond t...
