Postinfarction interventricular septum defect is a rare, but very serious and sometimes fatal, complication of acute myocardial infarction. This article describes a clinical case of online diagnosis of a late-stage myocardial infarction and the subsequent successful endovascular repair of a postinfarction ventricular septum defect with a Myval™ occluder.

Intraventricular septum rupture is a rare mechanic complication of myocardial infarction associated with high mortality. This case describes STEMI in recovered patient after COVID 19 associated pneumonia, which was complicated by ventricular septum rupture followed by cardiogenic shock. It was managed by percutaneous occluder implantation.

Cardiac lipomas are benign primary cardiac tumors that are most often asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the imaging modality of choice when aiming to characterize these tumors. A minority of cardiac lipomas are intramyocardial, which, when combined with the much more common post-infarction fatty metaplasia, makes diagnosing these lipomas very challenging.

Background: Gore Cardioform Atrial Septal Defect Occluder (GCA) is composed of a platinum-filled nitinol wire frame covered with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE). This makes the device highly occlusive and resistant to residual shunts through the device, as well as conforming well to the surrounding anatomy. In defects with poor rims to hold a device for closure or where one of the 'rims' is the free wall of the left ventricle, such as in a post-infarct apical ventricular septal defect (VSD), successful closure with standard nitinol mesh devices can be unachievable.
