Cardiac traumatization may lead to severe complications. Transcatheter closure of a postraumatic ventricular septal defect (VSD) was successfully done using an Amplatzer septal occluder in a man who had previously undergone surgery for myocardial fissure and mitral valve dysfunction. In selected cases, the percutaneous approach may be a valuable option to close muscular VSDs. Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent 2001;53:508–512. © 2001 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
