Percutaneous Device Closure of the Atrial Septum

Percutaneous Device Closure of the Atrial Septum, edited by Stephen Brecker, brings together many of the world's leading interventional cardiologists to discuss all aspects concerning transcatheter device closure of defects of the atrial septum. Due to high technological advances, interest in this field has expanded rapidly over the past 10 years, and it is likely that there will be a sharp increase in the number of procedures being performed in the near future. With an ever-increasing rise in the number of adult patients presenting with atrial septum defects, it is imperative that interventional cardiologists know how to best deal with the problem, and this timely and much-needed text will prove to be a highly useful tool.
