Abstract
The Atrial Flow Regulator (AFR) is a self-expandable double-disc device with a central fenestration, intended to maintain a calibrated communication across the interatrial septum. We reported for the first time a stent implantation across an AFR device in an adolescent born with complex congenital heart disease with duct-dependent systemic circulation and severe combined pulmonary hypertension.
