Large Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Pseudoaneurysm Closed Percutaneously From a Novel Apical Approach

An incidental finding of a large left ventricular outflow tract pseudoaneurysm in a 74-year-old man, with high surgical risk, was managed with a novel, fully percutaneous, left ventricular apical approach. The pseudoaneurysm defect and the apical puncture site were successfully closed with Amplatzer...

Sumario:An incidental finding of a large left ventricular outflow tract pseudoaneurysm in a 74-year-old man, with high surgical risk, was managed with a novel, fully percutaneous, left ventricular apical approach. The pseudoaneurysm defect and the apical puncture site were successfully closed with Amplatzer septal occluders with successful positioning, as demonstrated on cardiac computed tomography at 6 weeks follow-up. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
