Abstract

Re-expansion pulmonary edema is a serious complication that can occur after minimally invasive cardiac surgery through a right mini-thoracotomy. Herein, we describe two paediatric cases where re-expansion pulmonary edema was observed after simple atrial septal defect closure through a right mini-thoracotomy. This is the first case report of re-expansion pulmonary edema after a paediatric cardiac surgery.
