Abstract

Transcatheter  occlusion  of  ASD  with   device  is  an  effective,alternative to surgical repair : feasible  and  safe procedure with minimal complication rate and short hospital stay, as well as excellent short and long term outcome .However, large ASDs (>38 mm) and defects with deficient rims are usually not offered transcatheter closure but are referred for surgical closure. Transcatheter closure also remains controversial for other complicated ASDs with comorbidities, additional cardiac features and in small children. Previous studies have shown high success rate, low complication rate and less discomfort[1,2] . With the devices and technology currently available, several cohort studies have reported successful percutaneous closure in the above-mentioned complex cases. However the feasibility and safety of transcatheter technique needs to be confirmed through larger studies and longer follow-up.
