We did a perventricular VSD closure very smoothly. 45 day old infant stuck in the ventilator with HF with a 9 mm mid muscular VSD and a CoA. I did the VSD with Simone guiding me with superb pictures on TEE and the surgeon did the CoA. The kid has just been extubated! Very impressive. Again: this wouldn't have been possible if you guys hadn't given us so much support!

Byrne, MD, Chairman of Cardiac Surgery and pioneer in Hybrid therapies for adults with cardiovascular disease, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee, USA.
