Transcatheter treatment of perimembranous ventricular septal defect, secundum atrial septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus in a child

J Cardiovasc Med (Hagerstown). 2006 Oct;7(10):775-8. doi: 10.2459/01.JCM.0000247327.88030.12.

Abstract

A 4-year-old child with patent ductus arteriosus, perimembranous ventricular septal defect and ostium secundum atrial septal defect was successfully treated with the use of a simultaneous transcatheter for all of the anomalies present. The patent ductus arteriosus was closed first by using a coil, then the perimembranous ventricular septal defect was closed by using a 10-mm Amplatzer eccentric device. Finally, a 10-mm Amplatzer atrial septal defect device was implanted to treat the atrial septal defect.
