We report a case of percutaneous closure of a congenital perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) performed via a radial artery and basilic vein accesses. We further discuss the technique, advantages, and limitation of this innovative approach for perimembranous VSD closure.

Quadricuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital heart defect. The authors present a case of this anomaly in a young, asymptomatic adolescent who presented to the echocardiography laboratory for further evaluation of a cardiac murmur detected on routine physical examination. Imaging revealed a quadricuspid aortic valve with aortic regurgitation. This case highlights the importance of auscultation in detecting cardiac abnormalities.
