PDA Very common defect. True incidence unknown since many PDAs are silent Indications for closure include evidence of LV or LA enlargement or the presence of a heart murmur consistent with the PDA Treatment of “silent” PDAs controversial
PDA < approx 2 mm diameter may be closed with coil occlusion
PDA device occlusion Amplatzer duct occluder used for PDAs > 2 mm diameter
Amplatzer duct occluder First generation device must be delivered from pulmonary side

Congenital VSDs are the most common form of congenital heart disease Approx 20% of pts with CHD have a VSD as the solitary lesion Echo studies demonstrate an incidence of 5 -50/1000 newborns Adult cardiologists mostly deal with post-MI VSDs
Congenital VSDs Ventricular septum viewed from the RV is divided into the inlet (I), outlet (O), and trabecular portions (T) Anatomic locations of VSDs include outlet (a), membranous (c), muscular(d, e, g), and inlet (f)
Congenital VSDs Inlet and outlet type VSDs are not currently amenable to transcatheter closure Muscular defects can be closed with either the Amplatzer muscular VSD occluder or the cardioseal device Membranous VSDs can be closed with the Amplatzer membranous VSD device but this is not currently approved in the US
VSD Types 1 – outflow portion of RV spontaneous closure uncommon 2 – perimembranous - most common – 80% 3 – inlet VSD in lower RV near TV, often in Down syndrome 4 – muscular, 20% of VSDs in infants, spontaneous closure is common Warnes CA, et. al.

Conclusions 1. The newest Line of AGA products include upgrades of the vascular plug and ductal occluder and the introduction of the membranous VSD and cardiac LAA plug 2. None of these products are currently avavilable in the US but have ongoing European experience. 3. For now US physicians will have to make do with earlier generations. 4. The Cardiac LAA occluder hopes to begin randomized evaluation next year
