| Abstract |
|
Percutaneous device closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) has emerged as an alternative to
traditional surgical closure. Percutaneous device closure has advantages including less surgical
morbidity; avoidance of a scar and reduced hospitalization duration compared with surgical
closure and high success rate. However; some complications after procedure require immediate
surgery. We report a rare complication of migration of ASD occluder into the left ventricle due to
coughing. |
