Amplatzer Device Embolization Of The Pulmonary Artery
Loading player ... The player requires Flash Player plugin
Material type: Patient
17 years old male patient admitted to the Cardiology department with orthopnea. He had a secundum type atrial septal defect which had been closed with an Amplatzer device 40 days ago. At the one month follow up examination, he was all right with no symptoms or signs of dislocation of the device. Upon his admission, transthoracic echocardiography revealed the dislocation of the device so that it had migrated to the pulmonary artery bifurcation, occluding the left pulmonary artery. We have removed the device and closed the atrial septal defect successfully, performing an open heart procedure.
