“…The success and safety of transcatheter techniques have significantly increased the number of percutaneous closure procedures. 25,26 As above, pulmonary hypertension, with right-to-left shunting at rest (or a pulmonary vascular resistance of Ͼ14 Woods units), is the principal contraindication to ASD closure. 20 However, patients may present with intermediate degrees of pulmonary hypertension with bidirectional or predominantly left-to-right shunts.…”

“…5,8 No ETT do primeiro mês, foi detectado mínimo shunt residual em quatro casos (8,1%) − três dos quais apresentavam múltiplos orifícios. Um paciente que tinha o septo muito fino necessitou de duas próteses.…”

“…This guidance offers adequate visualization of the margins and safe deployment of the device as well as confirmation that the vital structures such as vena cavae, coronary sinus and aortic rim are not compressed. It has been often reported in medical literature that deficient rims are intimately related to the success of the procedure and adequate attachment of the device to the septum 24,25 . If the device is deployed without this critical evaluation the chance of incomplete defect occlusion or embolization of the prosthesis increases significantly.…”
