Hemidiaphragms and costophrenic sulci are intact.
Visualized osseous structures are unremarkable.
Case Discussion
This case demonstrates the radiographic appearance of an Amplatzer septal occluder (AGA Medical Corporation, Plymouth, Minn). The Amplatzer septal occluder is a nitinol double-disk-shaped device used for percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects.
