Journal ArticleDOI
Erosion of Amplatzer septal occluder device after closure of secundum atrial septal defects: Review of registry of complications and recommendations to minimize future risk
Zahid Amin,Ziyad M. Hijazi,John L. Bass,John P. Cheatham,William E. Hellenbrand,Charles S. Kleinman +5 more
TL;DR: The risk of device erosion with ASO is low and complications can be decreased by identifying high‐risk patients and following them closely, as well as identifying high-risk cases, early recognition, and prompt intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of surgical, stent, and balloon angioplasty treatment of native coarctation of the aorta: an observational study by the CCISC (Congenital Cardiovascular Interventional Study Consortium).
Thomas J. Forbes,Dennis W. Kim,Wei Du,Daniel R. Turner,Ralf J. Holzer,Zahid Amin,Ziyad M. Hijazi,Abdolrahim Ghasemi,Jonathan J. Rome,David Nykanen,David Nykanen,Evan M. Zahn,Evan M. Zahn,Collin G. Cowley,Mark H. Hoyer,David Waight,Daniel H. Gruenstein,Alex Javois,Susan R. Foerster,Jacqueline Kreutzer,Nancy M. Sullivan,Asra Khan,Carl Y. Owada,Donald J. Hagler,Scott Lim,Joshua Canter,Thomas M. Zellers +26 more
TL;DR: At short-term and intermediate follow-up, stent and surgical patients achieved superior hemodynamic and integrated aortic arch imaging outcomes compared with BA patients, although they were more likely to require a planned reintervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Procedural results and acute complications in stenting native and recurrent coarctation of the aorta in patients over 4 years of age: a multi-institutional study.
Thomas J. Forbes,Thomas J. Forbes,Swati Garekar,Zahid Amin,Evan M. Zahn,David Nykanen,Phillip Moore,Shakeel A. Qureshi,John P. Cheatham,Makram R. Ebeid,Ziyad M. Hijazi,Satinder Sandhu,Donald J. Hagler,Horst Sievert,Thomas E. Fagan,Jeremy M. Ringewald,Wei Du,Liwen Tang,David F. Wax,John F. Rhodes,Troy A. Johnston,Thomas K. Jones,Daniel R. Turner,Carlos A. C. Pedra,William E. Hellenbrand +24 more
TL;DR: Improvement in the ability to assess aortic wall compliance is essential prior to placement of ISs in older patients with coarctation of the aorta, though it remains a technically challenging procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcatheter Closure of Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defects Using the New Amplatzer Membranous VSD Occluder: Results of the U.S. Phase I Trial
Yun Ching Fu,John L. Bass,Zahid Amin,Wolfgang Radtke,Wolfgang Radtke,John P. Cheatham,William E. Hellenbrand,David T. Balzer,Qi Ling Cao,Ziyad M. Hijazi +9 more
TL;DR: Transcatheter closure of a PmVSD is technically feasible and seems safe enough in children over 8 kg in weight to warrant continuation of clinical trials to assess the long-term safety and efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcatheter closure of postinfarction ventricular septal defects using the new Amplatzer muscular VSD occluder: Results of a U.S. Registry.
Ralf J. Holzer,David T. Balzer,Zahid Amin,Carlos E. Ruiz,Jeffrey A. Feinstein,John L. Bass,Michael Vance,Qi Ling Cao,Ziyad M. Hijazi +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that percutaneous device closure of postinfarction VSDs using the Amplatzer PIMVSD occluder appears to be safe and effective.
