Successful left atrial access through <scp>GORE CARDIOFORM ASD</scp> occluder using an integrated transseptal wire system after failed <scp>RF</scp> needle approach
An integrated transseptal wire system enabled successful left atrial access through the elastic resistance posed by a large GORE CARDIOFORM ASD occluder after failed RF needle attempt, allowing large-bore cryoballoon sheath advancement via sequential sheath technique for atrial fibrillation ablation without procedural complications.
