Electrosurgical Catheter Reshaping to Unify a Double Atrial SEptal Defect (ERASED Procedure) for Single‐Device Percutaneous Closure

We present the first case of a double atrial septal defect (ASD) successfully reshaped using transcatheter electrosurgery to unify both defects into a single orifice, enabling closure with a single device. This technique appears feasible and may simplify the management of complex double ASDs in some cases.

Abstract

We present the first case of a double atrial septal defect (ASD) successfully reshaped using transcatheter electrosurgery to unify both defects into a single orifice, enabling closure with a single device. This technique appears feasible and may simplify the management of complex double ASDs in some cases.
