Transcatheter Perimembranous VSD Device Closure
2021
The prevalence of VSD in adults is lower than the other defects with left to right shunts. When is detected in adulthood, it may cause LV volume overload or can be lead to Eisenmenger syndrome. It is off-label to close the perimembranous type (the most common type) percutaneously. But by recent advances in device types, it seems that trans-catheter closure of this type of VSD can be done safely with low complications.
