Abstract

We describe a modified patch closure technique for repairing subacute anterior ventricular septal perforation. Through a left ventriculotomy, a larger double-layered planar patch is secured with double suture lines to close the defect and cover the ventricular septum. This modification is simple and easy, and may help to avoid a residual shunt.
