Transcatheter closure of the aortopulmonary window with a multifunctional occluder device

Abstract

Aortopulmonary window (APW) is a rare congenital heart disease. In general, surgical closure is the mainstay of treatment. There are few case reports describing transcatheter closure of an APW. Here we report a case of a APW device closure under general anaesthesia by a multifunctional occluder device in a three-year-old boy.
