From February 1992 to November 1995, four French teams used the Sideris button occluder to close 122 ostium secundum, foramen ovale or surgical fenestration atrial septal defects in 121 patients aged 2 to 79 years with body weights of 10 to 96 kg. a left-to-right shunt in 110 cases (average QP/QS = 2.09) or right-to-left shunt in 12 cases. The usual type of prosthesis was used in 115 cases, 8 centered on a guide wire, reverse type in 5 cases and the "centering-device" type in 2 patients. Nineteen implantation attempts were abandoned before releasing the prosthesis. The immediate results were: closure of the atrial septal defect in 116 patients: 59 were completely occluded, 43 had minimal residual shunts. Five patients were operated for non-buttoning or malposition of the prosthesis. In one other case, the device was removed by catheterisation. During follow-up ranging from 1 month to 3 years, 20 patients were operated for varying complications, the commonest of which was malposition of the prosthesis (17 cases) with a shunt of variable volume. In one other case, a second device was inserted. Seventy-seven patients were reviewed at 1 year, 28 a 2 years and 6 at 3 years. The residual shunts decreased with time but only completely disappeared in half the cases. Secondary fractures not requiring surgery were observed in 5 patients. Failures and complications were the result of various causes which are discussed. Successive technological improvements and the experience of the medical teams should reduce this incidence, but caution is required especially in the treatment of young children.
