Pediatric cardiology Less invasive percutaneous closure of persistent arterial duct in children below 10 kilos

Abstract: IntroductionThere is quite high risk of vascular complications connected with arterial puncture – mainly in the group of the smallest patients weighing less than 10 kg.AimTo evaluate a new method of percutaneous closure of persistent arterial duct (PDA) in small children.Material and methodsSix patients were enrolled in this method of PDA closure at the age of 10.67 ±1.97 months. The mean weight was 8.85 ±0.66 kg. The occluders were implanted using only venous access. The position of the occluder was determine… Show more

“…During the echo imaging, we have checked for the obstruction of the descending aorta and both pulmonary arteries. In the literature, there are reports of PDA closure using only the venous route in children weighing less than 10 kg ( 21 , 22 ). We have previously reported effective and reliable transvenous closure of PDA in selected cases with ADO I without femoral arterial access under the guidance of transthoracic echocardiography and aortogram in the return phase ( 23 ).…”
