Percutaneous Placement of Amplatzer Duct Occluder Device to Seal a Saphenous Vein Graft Pseudoaneurysm
Highlights
- • Saphenous vein graft aneurysm/pseudoaneurysm (SVGA) is a rare but serious complication of coronary artery bypass surgery.
- • The optimal approach to manage SVGAs is not established.
- • Use of Amplatzer devices is an emerging percutaneous approach for closure of SVGAs.
- • Amplatzer duct occluder II device can be used effectively to seal SVGAs while avoiding the risks of major surgery.
