    Abstract:
    A customized Amplatzer septal device with a 5 mm fenestration was used to create an interatrial communication in two patients with previous Fontan operation and clinical indication for fenestration. At follow-up, device fenestration was occluded in both patients. In both patients, the device fenestration was reopened and patency maintained by placement of two stents within the communicating channel.
