Dr. Sainath Hegde [2] | Dr. Tukaram Aute
Abstract: Lutembacher syndrome is a rare combination of Congenital ostium secundum Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) and acquired Rheumatic Mitral stenosis. The gold standard treatment for this condition is the surgical closure of ASD and mitral valve replacement. Here, we report a case of Lutembacher syndrome treated percutaneously with a combined ASD closure with Cocoon septal occluder and balloon mitral valvotomy.
Keywords: Atrial septal defect, mitral valve stenosis, balloon dilatation
