This study evaluated the immediate and 1-year postoperative outcomes of 14 patients with ruptured Valsalva aneurysmal sinus (RSVA) using symmetric ventricular septal defect (VSD) occluder for transcatheter closure (TCC). The sites of rupture were from the non-coronary sinus to the right atrium (RA) in 10 cases (71.4%), the right coronary sinus (RCS) to the RA in 3 cases (21.4%) and the RCS to the right ventricle in 1 case (7.2%). The defects (5-11 mm) were closed with a symmetrical VSD device. During the follow-up (12 months), the enlarged heart of the patients had significantly shrunk and the NYHA improved after closure. In 1 case, a moderate residual shunt was present and the patient suffered from hemolysis at 2 h after the operation, and 1 patient was transferred to surgery for aortic regurgitation 1 year after the initial treatment of RSVA. In conclusion, the TCC of RSVA with the China made symmetrical VSD occluder is safe and effective.

Background: Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation, accounting for approximately 30% of congenital heart defects. Conventional surgical repair using cardiopulmonary bypass is invasive and associated with morbidities and prolonged hospital stay. With the advent of interventional approaches and availability of different occluding devices, the technique of perventricular device closure is evolving and being implemented successfully in larger groups of patients.

The aim of this study was to introduce an interventional heart catheterization to close patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), ventricular septal defect (VSD), atrial septal defect (ASD), and pulmonary hypertension without complications from open heart surgery and a 3-day hospitalization period. PDA, VSD, and ASD are among the most common abnormalities associated with various complications. This case is a 3.

Objectives: Residual ventricular septal defect (VSD) after congenital heart disease (CHD) is one of the major postoperative complications in cardiac surgery. At present, the commonly used clinical treatment methods for this complication are reoperation to redo surgical repair with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and percutaneous transcatheter device closure, but these 2 methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. Transthoracic punctural closure of residual VSD is a feasible, safe, and novel technique for patients with residual VSD, which avoids not only the risk of difficulties in reoperation under another CPB due to thoracic adhesion, but also the risk of radiation exposure.

Background: Liposuction is one of the most commonly performed aesthetic procedures. Toxic shock syndrome(TSS) is a rare, life-threatening complication. The incidence rate of TSS is very low in the plastic surgery field, especially after liposuction and fat transfer.
