Abstract

We present a case of a 31-year-old male with a large atrial septal defect, who was found to have interrupted inferior caval vein with azygous continuation to the superior caval vein, which precluded transcutaneous closure by device. The defect was successfully closed with a 33 mm Occlutech Figula septal occluder using a sub-mammary small thoracotomy incision and per-atrial approach without using cardiopulmonary bypass. The patient was discharged home after 48 hours of procedure.
