Abstract
Transcatheter closure of a single secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) is performed routinely using various investigational devices. A 37‐year‐old patient with two large secundum ASDs underwent successful simultaneous transcatheter closure using an 18‐mm and 20‐mm Amplatzer™ septal occluder device. At 3‐month follow‐up, transesophageal color Doppler echocardiography revealed one defect to be completely closed, and the other had trivial residual shunt with significant improvement in symptoms.
