Popis: We report a case of successful performance of combined percutaneous intervention of complex coronary artery disease (CAD) and atrial septal defect (ASD) in a middle aged female. The case demonstrates the feasibility and safety of performing combined complex PTCA and ASD device closure in selected patients. Successful combined procedure obviates the need for major cardiac surgery and repeated hospitalizations. Such combined procedure can be an effective alternative for patients at high surgical risk.
