Author(s): Rania Abushokka

Introduction:

Retrograde transcatheter closure of perimembranous aneurysmal ventricular septal defects ( pm VSD) can be a better option due to device placement into septal aneurysm with fewer complications. Also retrograde approach might decrease procedure time and radiation exposure time.
