Simultaneous transcatheter valvuloplasty and Amplatzer septal occlusion for pulmonary valvar stenosis and secundum atrial septal defect.

چکیده
Transcatheter balloon valvuloplasty had been established as the treatment of choice in patients with pulmonary valvar stenosis. Non surgical closure of secundum atrial defects by various occlusive devices is currently being evaluated. We report the first successful simultaneous transvenous Mansfield balloon dilation and Amplatzer septal occlusion in a 7-year-old girl with moderately severe pulmonary valvar stenosis and secundum atrial defect in April 1997. Satisfactory reduction of pressure gradient across pulmonary valve and complete obliteration of left to right atrial shunt were achieved.

Integrated Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Occlusion and Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Introduction: Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart diseases during childhood. Today, ASD closure is done by occlutech device via cardiac catheterization. ASD repair with transcatheter technique has shown high closure rate. However, coexistence of severe pulmonary stenosis and large defect in atrial septum is rare. When these two problems coexist, the result is i...
متن کاملCombined transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect and pulmonary valve balloon dilation.
Critical pulmonary valve stenosis (CPVS) and atrial septal defect (ASD) is an uncommon form of congenital heart disease. Concurrent transcatheter pulmonary valvuplasty and closure of secundum atrial septal defect appears to be an interesting alternative to surgical correction. We present the simultaneous balloon valvuloplasty of critical pulmonary stenosis (PS) with supra systemic right ventric...

BACKGROUND Transcatheter balloon valvuloplasty has been the accepted first line treatment for congenital pulmonic stenosis (PS) in children. Transcatheter closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) with Amplatzer VSD occluder is an alternative to surgical repair. CASE PRESENTATION A 12 year old boy presented with history of exertional dyspnea and atypical chest pain. Physical f...

A secundum atrial septal defect is the most common congenital heart defect. Transcatheter treatment of secundum atrial septal defects is a popular and less invasive alternative to surgery. Procedural complications may occur in a wide spectrum, particularly device embolus as the most emergent one, but luckily they do not commonly occur in the clinical setting. Mortality from adverse events relat...
