- 1. Shanghai Children's Hospital, Shanghai (China)
Description
Objective: To classify the morphology of patent ductus arteriosis according of their sites of narrowing into 5 groups. Methods: From 1986-1997, totally 120 cases of angiogram were studied. The authors used Ivalon plug, Gianturco coil and Amplatzer method for occlusion. Results: Cases with Ivalon plug and Amplatzer device were all successful, no residual shunt or recanalization were found in the follow-up. Among 30 cases using coil, 3 had residual shunt, 2 had dislodgement of coil. Conclusions: In using coil to occluding PDA type A ductus was most successful, and in type B and C reopen may occur in follow-up
