Abstract

Transseptal puncture is an established technique for achieving left atrium access during cardiac procedures. It is associated with low overall complication rate and high success rates. Although being almost a century old technique, recent years brought a substantial development in the field, allowing for faster and safer left atrium catheterization. In this paper we discuss its history, complications, available techniques and current state of the art.
