    Author: Smolka G, Pysz P, Ochała A.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2011 Aug 01; 78(2):326-30. PubMed ID: 21766422.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of a patient with history of complicated infective endocarditis. Following aortic valve replacement, he developed heart failure symptoms related to paravalvular leak and ventricular septum defect. Comprehensive multimodality imaging allowed planning a simultaneous closure of both with a single device. Successfully accomplished procedure resulted in significant abatement of symptoms and reduction of ventricles dilatation.
