Growth of an atrial septal defect: missing the window for transcatheter closure.

T A Tortoriello1, C McMahon, J P Kovalchin, J T Bricker, R G Grifka.   

Abstract

We describe a patient diagnosed with a small atrial septal defect (3-4 mm) that had grown to 24 mm in diameter over a six-year period. Timing of transcatheter intervention may be affected by growth of the atrial septal defect and this reports the first case of an atrial septal defect outgrowing the possibility of transcatheter closure.
