Successful percutaneous closure of a recurrent aorto-left ventricular tunnel with an Amplatzer Vascular Plug II
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 September 2022
Abstract
Aorto-left ventricular tunnel is an extremely rare CHD clinically impressing as aortic regurgitation. This is usually corrected surgically, sometimes by percutaneous catheter intervention. Recurrent aorto-left ventricular tunnel has been reported occasionally. Reports of percutaneous closure of such recurrent aorto-left ventricular tunnels are rare. We hereby describe successful closure of a recurrent aorto-left ventricular tunnel with an Amplatzer Vascular Plug II.
