Abstract

Complex atrial anatomy continues to challenge transcatheter device closure of septal defects. Devices and technology continue to evolve. We report three cases from our institution where the new Gore® Septal Occluder was utilized for the closure of a lateral tunnel fenestration, a moderate-sized secundum atrial septal defect and a long tunnel patent foramen ovale. Each case highlights the successful use of this new generation device in challenging circumstances.
