Key result
Transcatheter atrial septal occluder successfully repairs pediatric post-reconstruction aortic pseudoaneurysm.
Why the study?
Surgical repair of aortic pseudoaneurysm in the early post-operative period has very high morbidity and mortality, and reports of successful transcatheter repair are very limited.

Case Report (n=1)
Transcatheter palliation using an atrial septal occluder can be a successful bridge to surgery for life-threatening aortic pseudoaneurysms in the early post-operative period.
Paksoy et al. (2023) conducted a case report in Aortic pseudoaneurysm (n=1). Percutaneous transcatheter repair using atrial septal occluder was evaluated on Successful treatment of pseudoaneurysm. Percutaneous transcatheter repair using an atrial septal occluder successfully treated an aortic pseudoaneurysm in a 9-year-old female following aortic reconstruction.
