Abstract
Percutaneous occlusion techniques of secundum type atrial septal defects have recently become the treatment of choice, delivering excellent results and being associated with a low rate of early and late complications. The investigators report an unusually delayed presentation of acute right heart failure due to Amplatzer septal device embolisation into the main pulmonary artery, 2 years after implantation.Entities:
