Abstract
Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a common congenital heart disease (CHD) in childhood, and its incidence is about 20% of CHD. Surgical closure or repair is safe with acceptable results. Transcatheter VSD closure offers excellent results. Coil system is developed for transcatheter VSD occlusion. Infective endocarditis (IE) post device implantation is very rare; however, it is possible. IE represents a surgical challenge associated with perioperative mortality
