Abstract

Aortopulmonary window (APW), a large aortopulmonary septal defect (APSD), is a serious and rare defect within congenital heart diseases. In this study, we reported an APW case with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension. This patient was successfully treated by transcatheter closure with a muscular ventricular septal defect (VSD) occluder. We had a successful experience with transcatheter closure of a large APW using a muscular VSD occluder. There was no residual shunt or complications during the 6-month follow-up.
