    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    THE EVENT WAS RECEIVED THROUGH LITERATURE ARTICLE "DEVICE CLOSURE OF RESIDUAL SHUNT AFTER PERCUTANEOUS CLOSURE OF PATENT FORAMEN OVALE" PUBLISHED IN EUROINTERVENTION 2010. IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE PHYSICIAN IMPLANTED A 15MM HELEX SEPTAL OCCLUDER ON (B) (6) 2002 TO CLOSE A 5.3MM PATENT FORAMEN OVALE. A MODERATE RESIDUAL SHUNT WAS NOTED DURING A FOLLOW UP VISIT. A REINTERVENTION WAS PERFORMED, BUT THE PHYSICIAN WAS UNABLE TO CROSS THE SEPTUM, SO A SECOND DEVICE COULD NOT BE IMPLANTED. THERE WERE NO PROCEDURAL COMPLICATIONS.
