Abstract
A heart defect in the form of an hole is corrected by placing a patch over the hole. The patch is first attached to an uninflated balloon which is placed distally of the hole. The balloon is inflated with fluid and the patch is positioned upon the hole. After endothelialization the balloon is deflated and removed through a small hole in the patch. The small hole in the patch is closed by a purse string. During endothelialization the balloon is held in place by a disk or second balloon on the proximate side of the defect.
