Isolated patent ductus arteriosus with right sided aortic arch: percutaneous closure with amplatzer device
Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 8
Abstract
Introduction: The association of a right aortic arch with an isolated patent ductus arteriosus is rare, especially when there are no other intracardiac anomalies. We report a case of successful transcatheter closure of PDA with right aortic arch. Due to anatomical variation PDA was crossed through aortic side and snared from pulmonary side and closed with Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO I). In this patient, full closure was confirmed in the catheterization laboratory and the patient was discharged with no complications. Percutaneous closure of an isolated patent ductus arteriosus associated with a right aortic arch is feasible, safe and effective.
