Abstract

The clinical data of 31 patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) receiving minimally invasive surgical closure through chest or femoral venous catheter from June 2016 to September 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were diagnosed with esophageal echocardiography before operation. During the operation, the insert of guide wire and the sheath tube, and the placement of the sealing parasol were monitored and guided by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Satisfactory results were obtained in 30 patients. In 1 patients, the sealing parasol was detached, and open chest surgery was performed to remove the detached parasol and to repair the defect. TEE-guided minimally invasive surgical closure through chest or femoral vein catheter is safe and effective in the treatment of congenital heart disease and has certain clinical applicative value. Key words: Surgical; Congenital heart disease; Minimally invasive block; Transesophageal echocardiography
