Transcatheter closure of congenital Gerbode-type ventricular septal defect using the new multifunctional occluder device.

The KONAR-Multifunctional™ VSD Occluder (MFO) (Lifetech) is one of the most recent additions to the armamentarium of transcatheter therapies. The device offers superior technical features and experienced interventionists having been using it in risky and complex anatomies. Herein, we report the first use of the MFO device to close a congenital Gerbode-type perimembranous ventricular septal defect in an 18-year-old girl.
