Mild or subclinical intravascular haemolysis subsequent to transcatheter occlusion of the patent arterial duct

Abstract: One of the important complications of transcatheter occlusion of the patent duct by insertion of either the Rashkind double umbrella or coil devices is intravascular haemolysis, particularly the severe form which occurs in 0.5-0.6% of cases. The incidence of subclinical or mild intravascular haemolysis including morphologic changes in the red cells, however, is not known, especially in the group of patients with residual shunt. We studied laboratory and haematologic changes in 37 patients subsequent to transca… Show more

“…Reportedly, coil occlusion may cause hemolysis, hemoglobinuria, and thrombosis. 18,21,22 In the dog of this report, hemolysis resulting in hemoglobinuria, which appeared to have been caused by shear stress from residual shunting of blood through the coil, was detected. However, this complication was mild and resolved 3 weeks after surgery.…”
