| Abstract: | ![]()
We created an atrial septal defect (ASD) using a Ferris-Smith-Kerrison bone punch under transesophageal echocardiographic monitoring for infants with complex congenital heart diseases, eg, transposition of the great arteries. We describe a safe and easy technique of ASD creation instead of Blalock-Hanlon operation. |
