A closure device was first placed at the aortic end of the fistula to control blood flow.
Subsequently, a second device was deployed at the RA end of the fistula to ensure complete occlusion.
Following the deployment, an aortogram confirmed the successful closure of the fistula. The coronary arteries were intact & blood flow was normalized, ensuring the safety and stability of the procedure.
