Transcatheter closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defect is an alternative to surgery in selected small to medium defects with a reasonable distance between the defect and the aortic or tricuspid valves. Surgical closure is generally preferred for large defects with an inlet to outlet extension, aortic malalignment, or deficient aortic rim. We report two successful cases of percutaneous closure of large perimembranous ventricular septal defects with inlet to outlet extension using an Amplatzer Vascular Plug-II via a retrograde approach. Transcatheter closure of large perimembranous ventricular septal defect with inlet to outlet extension is feasible and facilitated by the characteristics of the Amplatzer Vascular Plug-II device and the specific implantation technique.

Infective endocarditis (IE) in children is a rare entity which presents a high rate of events during follow-up. Congenital heart disease, i particular ventricular septal defect (VSD), is the main predisposing condition to IE at those ages. The long-term risk of IE is of concern and whose follow-up can be complicated by a relapse of IE and reintervention.

Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with a rare form of ventricular septal defect (VSD) needs careful attention when choosing the optimal strategy for repair. A neonate with TGA and an atypical VSD, which extended from the perimembranous to the juxta-arterial regions, underwent the arterial switch procedure. The large VSD was successfully closed via a trans-tricuspid combined with a trans-aortic valve approach concomitantly with the arterial switch maneuver.

Background: Perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) can be classified as having trabecular, inlet, or outlet extension. The surgical approach used in patch closure depends on the which valve of the tricuspid valve to suture around and the avoidance of the specialized conducting system. This retrospective study evaluated the usefulness of the "En face view" method for classifying perimembranous VSD.
