Abstract
Limited studies report on the status of surgical closure patches for atrial septal defect (ASD) in the remote period. In our case, transthoracic echocardiography revealed a fistula of ASD patch before pulmonary vein isolation for atrial fibrillation. Preoperative Imaging examinations aid in evaluating the effect of the needle puncture around the artificial material of the atrial septum and catheter manipulation for patients with a history of ASD closure.
