Abstract:
Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries can be associated with other congenital cardiac abnormalities. The development of percutaneous closure devices potentially offers the opportunity to close related cardiac defects without exposing patients to the increased risks of cardiac surgery. This case report describes the successful closure of an atrial septal defect in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries using an Amplatzer septal occluder.
