Abstract
An unligated vertical vein (VV) after TAPVC surgery is likely to require subsequent closure. Reports of transcatheter closure of the VV are largely unpublished. This report details transcatheter closure of a persistent VV using an Amplatzer PDA occluder, following TAPVC repair in early infancy. We suggest that transcatheter closure should be considered as a treatment option in this condition. (c) 2007 Wiley-Liss, Inc.Entities:
