“…During experiments on 4 sheep hearts, Amplatzer muscular VSD occluder devices were used successfully to close 14F to 26F sheath insertion sites in the RV [3]. Percutaneous closure of accidental right ventricular entry of a pericardial drain has been closed using Angioseal (St. Jude Medical, St. Paul, MN), but in both of these cases, the drain was inserted through a subxiphoid approach [4].…”

Accidental intraventricular placement of a pericardiocentesis catheter is a rare but well-recognized complication. Failure to achieve adequate hemostasis in the ventricular wall on removal of the catheter can potentially result in fatal consequences. Here we describe a case in which a chest drain (10.2F) accidentally entered into the right ventricle while attempting to drain pleural fluid, and the entry site was sealed using an Amplatzer VSD occluder device (St. Jude Medical, St. Paul, MN).

“…Inadvertent right ventricle (RV) perforation during pericardiocentesis is a life-threatening complication, which often requires an open surgical repair (1). There are few case reports about the percutaneous closure of iatrogenic RV perforation (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7). Here, we describe a patient with iatrogenic RV perforation, who had an unsuccessful attempt of percutaneous closure with a suture based vascular closure device.…”

Background Minimally invasive alternatives to surgical closure of cardiac perforations are a recognized need, especially in critically ill patients in whom predicted surgical mortality is prohibitive. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of an iatrogenic left atrium (LA) puncture closed with a plug-based vascular closure device (VCD). Case summary During a palliative right-sided thoracentesis on a 73-year-old woman, with end-stage heart failure due to rheumatic valvular heart disease, an accidental puncture and insertion of a central venous catheter into an aneurysmatic LA occurred. This complication was successfully managed percutaneously, under transthoracic echocardiographic guidance, after cardiac computed tomography planning, using a plug-based VCD. Discussion This case demonstrates the possible utility of plug-based devices for iatrogenic LA perforation closure, when surgical risk is deemed prohibitive.
