Cobra-Like Deformation of Amplatzer Devices Used for Closing Atrial Septal Defects: Can It Be Avoided?
We report the case of a 72-year-old woman diagnosed with ostium secundum atrial septal defect (OS-ASD) in an echocardiogram performed as part of the work-up for her high blood pressure. Over time, progressive dilation of the right ventricle was observed with progressive functional deterioration, indicating closure of the defect. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) confirmed an OS-ASD of 15×1...
متن کاملUrgent Surgical Intervention for Embolized Cardiac Occluder Devices: A Case Series
Introduction: In this study, we sought to illustrate our experience in urgent surgical management for embolized cardiac septal occlude devices resulting from trans-catheter closure of atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect. Mathrials and Methods: We retrospectively reviewed four patients aged 2–10 years who underwent urgent surgery due to cardiac septal occluder embolization between...
متن کامل[Correction of the perpendicular positioning of the Amplatzer device during closure of an ostium secundum atrial septal defect].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Ostium secundum atrial septal defects require closure. Echocardiographic studies have reported that, in 7% of cases, the Amplatzer occluder is orientated perpendicular to the rim of the defect. This article describes the use of an ancillary technique involving a balloon catheter that enables the Amplatzer device to be positioned transversely. METHODS We report six ...
متن کاملLive/Real Time Three-Dimensional Trans Esophageal Echocardiographic Findings in Amplatzer ASD Closure Devices in Adults
Six female patients aged from 19 to 73 years, with ostium secundum atrial septal defect underwent closure procedure with Amplatzer septal occluder device. Three-dimensional Echocardiography (3D-TEE) was done during the procedure or one day after the procedure. 3D-TEE provides incremental value over Two- dimensional trans-esophageal echocardiography in measuring Amplatzer septal occluder disc si...
متن کاملPercutaneous closure of multiple secundum atrial septal defects using 3 amplatzer atrial septal occluder devices: evaluation by live transthoracic 3-dimensional echocardiography.
A previously healthy 12-year-old boy was admitted to the hospital with acute pneumonitis. On admission, a heart murmur was detected. The transthoracic echocardiogram showed multiple secundum atrial septal defects with left-toright shunt and signs of right ventricular volume overload. He underwent right cardiac catheterization and transesophageal echocardiogram (transesophageal echocardiography)...
