Abstract:

Post infarction ventricular septal defect carries high mortality and the management of these patients is challenging both for cardiologist and cardiovascular surgeon, because of the patient hemodynamic instability and tissue friability which make the intervention difficult. We report one of our patient who had anterior M I followed by apical ventricular septal defect with cardiogenic shock .The patient was subjected to PCI and the defect was closed successfully with ASD closure device. The patient was discharge successfully from hospital.
