“…The hospital mortality in the simple and complex groups was 6.97% and 21.05%, respectively. Some experts have reported that APW without other associated lesions can be closed by a percutaneous or transcatheter device, with better outcomes . Therefore, if treated promptly, a better prognosis can be achieved in most patients with APW.…”

“…several techniques have been described, with or without cardiopulmonary bypass, including simple ligation, division and suturing, transpulmonary approach, transaortic direct closure, and polyester patch closure via the transaortic approach and the sandwich technique [18]. Currently, some cases of percutaneous closure with favorable results have been reported [14,19,20]. Transaortic approach using a median sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass was performed for our patient.…”

Aortopulmonary window (APW) is an uncommon congenital cardiac malformation, accounting for 0.1% of all congenital cardiac diseases. It is a defect between the ascending aorta and the trunk of the pulmonary artery. Such abnormality may occur as an isolated lesion or it can be associated with other cardiac abnormalities in one third to one half of cases. Clinical and hemodynamic presentation of this condition depends on the size of the defect and on the associated lesions. It is usually fatal in infancy or childhood if untreated with the development of irreversible pulmonary hypertension. Once the diagnosis is made, surgery must be performed quickly to avoid irreversible pulmonary vascular disease. We report the case of a 5-month-old infant with APW who was referred to our center by respiratory symptoms and heart murmurs.

“…Device closure is often possible in Type 1 APW. 3 Surgery is the mainstay of therapy, as excellent outcomes are achieved with it, and transcatheter closure is technically difficult. Despite the advances made in the development of devices for the closure of various congenital heart diseases, transcatheter APW is still in its early stages.…”

Introduction: The aortopulmonary window (APW) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly in which there is incomplete separation of the pulmonary artery and aorta. Percutaneous transcatheter closure is possible in a specific subset of APWs only, and surgery remains the mainstay of therapy. Clinical summary: We report a rare case of percutaneous device closure of post-device residual APW in a 32-month-old baby who had residual shunt post the device closure at two months of age. Discussion: Transcatheter closure of an aortopulmonary window is an effective and safe procedure for specific anatomic defects.
