✦ Synopsis

A 35-year-old female patient with a large residual shunt following transcatheter closure of a large secundum atrial septal defect using the Das-Angel Wings device underwent successful complete closure of the residual shunt using a 15-mm Amplatzer Septal Occluder. Transesophageal (two-and three-dimensional) echocardiography was of great help during the closure procedure.
