Abstract It is not uncommon to have prolapse of the atrial septal occluder device despite accurate measurement of atrial septal defect and an appropriately chosen device. This is particularly a problem in cases with large atrial septal defect with absent aortic rim. Various techniques have been described for successful implantation of atrial septal occluder in such a scenario. The essence of all these techniques is to prevent prolapse of the left atrial disc through the defect while the right atrial disc is being deployed. In this brief report, we illustrate the use of cobra head deformity of the device to successfully deploy the device across the atrial septum.

AbstractWe present the case of a 15-year-old boy who underwent arterial switch operation due to transposition of the great arteries with severe scoliosis, obstruction of the right coronary ostium, and severe stenosis of the pulmonary trunk. Balloon angioplasty caused a large aortopulmonary shunt provoking myocardial ischaemia and pulmonary hypertension. The traumatic “aortopulmonary window” was percutaneously occluded using an Amplatzer Septal Occluder device as a bridge to surgical repair.
