3 Fig 2 Transesophageal echocardiogram showing bulging of the patch on the right side with a persistent defect at the inferior suture line. (LV = left ventricle; RV = right ventricular.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )

4 Fig 3 Postoperative transesophageal echocardiogram showing complete closure of the septal defect. (LA = left atrium; LV = left ventricle, left ventricular; RV = right ventricle, right ventricular.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (99) )
