Trans-Septal Puncture Through Gore® Cardioform Septal Occluder Device - Step by Step Approach

We describe the patient selection, intraprocedural imaging, and procedural technique for transseptal puncture through the Gore® Cardioform interatrial septal occluder. Due to new indications for PFO closure and increasing need for access to the left atrium via percutaneous approach, we expect an increasing need for utilization of a trans-septal puncture technique through these devices.
