In this case report, we describe direct percutaneous delivery of a muscular-ventricular-septal-defect occluder device to close a left ventricular pseudoaneurysm. The occluder was positioned and deployed with the aid of concurrent transthoracic ultrasonography, transesophageal echocardiography, and fluoroscopy. In contrast with previously published reports, we describe and illustrate a direct transthoracic route across the pseudoaneurysmal sac, which obviated the need for indirect transfemoral or transapical approaches.

Surgical retrieval of endothelialized ventricular septal defect closure devices is associated with significant morbidity. We herein present a technique for the safe removal of such devices (Shanghai Shape Memory Alloy, China) from the heart.
