Abstract
Methods: All the pediatric interventional catheterizations done in our institute from January 2008 till January 2020 were included in this retrospective study. The total number of interventions were 2500 over this period of twelve years. We performed 30 emergency cardiac surgeries after interventional catheterization. The interventions were 11 ASD device closures, 10 PDA coil closures , 5 PDA Amplatzerdevice removal, 1 balloon dilatations (valvuloplasty, angioplasty) with stent , 3 cases of VSD closures. Surgical approaches as well as morbidity and mortality were reviewed to assess our decision of timing of the surgery as well as the surgical technique.
