Removal of Transcatheter Septal Occlusion Device in a Patient with Ventricular Septal Defect

Rev. cuba. med; 62 (4), 2023
Introducción: Las complicaciones asociadas al procedimiento de colocación de un dispositivo de oclusión septal se presentan en menos del 10 por ciento de los casos. La embolización requiere de cirugía cardíaca, por lo que se incrementa el riesgo de la mortalidad. Objetivo: Presentar el caso en una ...

Syndrome of ventricular septal defect and aortic regurgitation - A 22-year review of its management

Abstract Introduction: The presence of aortic regurgitation (AR) in the setting of ventricular septal defect (VSD) has always been a management challenge. Methods: This is a retrospective study looking at patients who underwent VSD closure with or without aortic valve intervention between January 1st, ...

Late tricuspid regurgitation after percutaneous transcatheter closure of ventricular septal defect: an educational presentation

Abstract Transcatheter closure of ventricular septal defects (VSD) is not out of complications. Late complications are rare, but important, and sometimes require surgical correction. Herein, we report a case of tricuspid regurgitation as a complication of transcatheter VSD closure. The patient underwent ...

Hybrid transthoracic periventricular device closure of ventricular septal defects: single-center experience

Despite successful surgical correction, patients cannot tolerate extubation after the operation. Major aortopulmonary collaterals (MAPCAs) are one of the rare causes of prolonged mechanical vent...

A sufentanil-based rapid cardiac anesthesia regimen in children undergoing percutaneous minimally-invasive intraoperative device closure of ventricular septal defect

Abstract Objective: To assess the effectiveness and safety of fast-track cardiac anesthesia using the short-acting opioid sufentanil in children undergoing intraoperative device closure of ventricular septal defect (VSD). Methods: This retrospective clinical study included 65 children who underwent int...

A comparative study of perventricular and percutaneous device closure treatments for isolated ventricular septal defect: a chinese single-institution experience

Abstract Objectives: To compare the advantages and disadvantages of perventricular and percutaneous procedures for treating isolated ventricular septal defect (VSD). Methods: A total of 572 patients with isolated VSD were selected in our hospital between January 2015 and December 2016. The patients' me...

Risk factors for major adverse events after surgical closure of ventricular septal defect in patients less than 1 year of age: a single-center retrospective
