Transcatheter Closure of Multiple Atrial Septal Defects With the Amplatzer Device

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Percutaneous device occlusion of secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) has become an accepted alternative to surgical repair. A variety of devices have been used successfully. However, all of them have limitations. We report our experience with two devices used to close multiple ASDs.
