• Abstract:

  Left Ventricle-Right Atrial Shunt is a rare anomaly of the ventricular septum, accounting for less than 1% of congenital heart defects. Such anomaly is classified etiologically as the congenital or acquired and its treatment consists of surgical correction of the shunt. The aim of this study was to report a case of transcatheter closure of this iatrogenically acquired defect after performing an atrial septal defect.
