BACKGROUND: Transcatheter device closure of ventricular septal defect (VSD) is an alternative to conventional surgical closure. Device closure of moderate to large perimembranous VSD (pmVSD) is considered technically challenging in smaller children weighing ≤10 kg. Very few studies are published on the outcomes of the same.
METHODS: Descriptive single-center retrospective study. Data of 49 children ≤10 kg with moderate to large pmVSDs taken up for transcatheter device closure in our institute were analyzed and their follow-up details were reviewed.
RESULTS: Of the 87 patients referred for VSD closure, 49 patients qualified for the inclusion criteria. Median age was 18 months (interquartile range: 13-22). Successful device deployment was achieved in 42 (85.7%) patients. Mean VSD size by transthoracic echocardiography was 5.98 mm (range: 4-12 mm). Mean waist size of the device used was 8.26 mm (range: 4-14 mm). There was one device embolization, requiring catheter-directed retrieval from the left ventricle and subsequent surgical referral for VSD closure. Minor complications such as device-related persistent new aortic regurgitation was noted in one patient and mild tricuspid regurgitation and transient heart block occurred in two patients each. There was no mortality or complete heart block requiring permanent pacemaker implantation immediately or during midterm follow-up (mean follow-up: 20 months; range: 6-72.5 months).
CONCLUSION: Device closure of moderate to large pmVSDs in children weighing ≤10 kg is feasible and safe with a success rate of 85.7%. Careful selection of patients and avoidance of oversizing the defect makes the immediate and midterm results acceptable.
