Abstract
Atrial septal defect (ASD) is the fourth most common congenital heart disease in the world. It was treated with surgical closure with the help of CPB in the earlier days. Now there are two approaches available, open surgery under CPB and transcatheter closure. Here we are going to present late complication of transcatheter closure of ASD.
Highlights
Open Access fects, with a prevalence estimated to affect 100 of 100,000 live births [1]
We present three cases who underwent successful surgical retrieval of an Atrial septal defect (ASD) occluder device embolized to right ventricle, months
She was diagnosed as a case of Ostium Secondum Atrial Septal defect (OS-ASD) (28 mm) with left to right shunt and was undergone ASD closure with CeraR ASD occluder (LT-ASD-30)
Summary
A 9 yr old girl presented in cardiology OPD with history of insidious onset, gradually progressive palpitation along with frequent upper respiratory tract infection. She was diagnosed as a case of Ostium Secondum Atrial Septal defect (OS-ASD) (28 mm) with left to right shunt and was undergone ASD closure with CeraR ASD occluder (LT-ASD-30). RA was opened via standard atriotomy and the device was found impacted in RVOT. It was retrieved safely (Figure 3(A), Figure 3(B)).
