We describe a case of delayed pulmonary artery perforation with the anchoring hooks of the Amplazer Cardiac Plug (ACP) (St Jude Medical, MN), which occurred 17 days after its proper and uncomplicated implantation. The patient was successfully treated with a surgical procedure. Technologic improvement of the ACP anchoring system seems to be most rational solution necessary to eliminate the risk of the adverse event described here.
