Complications in Atrial Septal Defect Device Closure: Case Study

Abstract	Atrial septal defect (ASD) is a common congenital cardiac anomaly. Even though surgery is the gold standard, percutaneous device closure is gaining popularity because of the short learning curve, cosmetic advantage and relative safety. The long-term implications are open to question. We report here two paediatric cases where surgical intervention was required during attempted percutaneous closure and briefly review the relevant literature. The atrial septal defect device closure was done in both the cases using a Amplatzer Device and delivery system, guided by Trans Esophageal Echocardiography (TEE).
