Aim: To assess the intermediate and long term outcome of different type device closure of PFO and ASD.Between 1997 and 2010, 403 patients (95 with PFO and 308 with ASD) underwent pcrcutaneous closure of the interatrial communication.The median age was 28 years (range 3,7years-78,7 years).Mean echocardiographic ASD diameter was 23 mm.Different types of devices such as Star-Flex (97pts), Occlutech (71 pts), Cardia (143pts), Amplatz (85 pts) and Helex (7 pts) were implanted.In 15 procedures the device had to be removed due to its underscoring or unstable position and a new device had to be implanted.The immediate procedure related complications were: device migration (5 pts-1,2%) with its percutaneous removing in all of them, pericardial effusion (1pts), device embolization (lpts) and sudden cardiac death (1 pts).During follow-up (up to12 years) there were 3 late complications: device embolization (lpts), device fracture (2 pts) and in one of them surgical intcrvention was required.

Limiting unnecessary ventricular pacing (VP) in patients (pts) who receive a dual-chamber (DDD) pacemaker (PM)appears desirable.Programming long AV delays has serious limitations in that respect: long
Several clinical studies (e.g.Danish Ⅱ1,2, Danish Ⅱ3,4, DAVID5, MOST sub analysis) have shown that unnecessary chronic right ventricular pacing has detrimental effects such as atrial fibrillation, lef
Over the last decade, atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) have emerged as new epidemics.During the same period, there has been an increase in the use of implantable devices for cardiac pac

Background: In the treatment of bifurcation lesions, routine stenting of both branches has thus far failed to demonstrate a clear clinical advantage over a provisional one-stent strategy.On the other
