Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of transcatheter closure of perimembrane ventricular septal defect (PMVSD) using Amplatzer eccentric perimembrane VSD occluder device Methods Six patients with a mean age of 24 2 years (ranging from 11 to 41 years), were each treated with Amplatzer occluder device through the percutaneous procedure under fluoroscopy, angiography and TTE The TTE and chest film were performed 24 hours, 1 and 3 months after the procedure to evaluate its therapeutic effect Results The success rate was 100%, and no complications occured during the procedure The mean diameter of the VSDs was 5 5 mm (ranging from 3 to 9 mm) The mean diameter of the occluder selected was 8 mm (ranging from 6 to 12 mm) No residual shunts were found in the 6 cases after the procedure 24 hour, 1 and 3 months X ray examination showed that both pulmnary vascularity and heart size were improved Conclusion Transcatheter closure of perimembrane ventricular septal defect using Amplatzer occluder device is an efficient method for patients with PMVSD The operation is simple with a high success rate of placement and a good occlusion effect
