Coarctation of the Aorta as a Complication of Surgical Ligation of Patent Ductus Arteriosus in a Premature Infant

Abstract: Surgical ligation of a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a commonly performed procedure. Complications are infrequent and most commonly include recurrent laryngeal nerve injury and rarely ligation of left pulmonary artery. We report a case of accidental ligation of the descending thoracic aorta leading to a clinically significant coarctation.

“…[ 20 21 22 ] The former is due to the sudden closure of the low resistance pulmonary circuit and leads to diastolic hypertension, while the latter is attributed to an acute decrease in preload that is particularly aggravated in intravascularly volume-depleted patients secondary to preoperative fluid restriction and aggressive diuresis. This preload-dependent systolic dysfunction manifests as hypotension and is poorly tolerated[ 23 24 ] Iatrogenic coarctation due to clipping of DTA is a known complication after ligation[ 25 26 ] Inadvertent ligation of the left pulmonary artery is a very rare complication with an estimated incidence of 0.001%.
