Single center experience with covered stent closure of sinus venosus atrial septal defect.

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and short-term outcomes of transcatheter closure of sinus venosus atrial septal defect (SVASD) using covered stents. We conducted an institutional retrospective analysis of 24 consecutive patients aged 15-70 years with superior SVASD and significant left-to-right shunting (QP/QS ≥ 1.5), who underwent percutaneous closure using covered stents between June 2021 and December 2023. Pre-procedural imaging included transesophageal echocardiography and cardiac Computed Tomography angiography (CTA). Procedural details, technical success, and echocardiographic parameters were recorded. Post-procedural outcomes were assessed with transthoracic echocardiography and/or CTA. The Patients' median age was 38 years (IQR: 28-53), and 50% were female. Median Atrial Septa
