A 45-year-old female patient was referred to our Cardiology Out- patient Clinic after an embolic cerebrovascu- lar event. Echocardio- graphic examination revealed a tunnel type patent foramen ovale (PFO), and trans- esophageal echocar- diography (TEE) con-

aortic and tricuspid regurgitation. Complete neuro- logical and laboratory investigations were performed including immunologic, rheumatologic, and genetic studies, which did not show any underlying pathology for cryptogenic stroke other than the PFO. Therefore, percutaneous closure of the PFO was planned with an Amplatzer PFO occluder (AGA Medical Corporation, Golden Valley, MN) device. After a diagnostic left and right heart catheterization, the procedure to close the PFO was planned under general anesthesia with WKHJXLGDQFHRI7((DQGÀXRURVFRS\$PP3)2

closure device was selected. It took three attempts to position the device and three retrievals into the intro- ducer sheath, but at each attempt the device could not be placed in an appropriate position. Therefore, a 15 mm ASD occluder device (AGA Medical Corpora- tion, Golden Valley, MN) was selected, and after con-

the device was released. In a few seconds after re- lease, the device was embolized to the left atrium, the left ventricle, then to the aorta, where it was stabilized in the descending aorta in a vertical position (Fig. B).

After several attempts, the de- vice was captured from the screw site and completely taken into the introducer sheath (Fig. C, Movie 3).

The system was removed from the femoral artery and the bleeding could be controlled with manual com- pression.
