“…1 The Lifetech Cera PDA occluder (Lifetech Scientific Co. Ltd, Shenzhen, China) is a similar shaped self-expanding device made of nitinol mesh with titanium nitride ceramic surface coating. 2 This device is softer and more flexible than the ADO, and generally allows a smaller delivery sheath size and easy deployment. Chamie et al also reported increased softness and flexibility and recommended that oversizing the Cera device to form a tighter waist was safe.…”

We describe two cases of spontaneous embolisation and successful retrieval of ceramic-coated patent arterial duct devices. In both, the device embolised to the descending aorta in the absence of pulmonary hypertension and despite optimum placement. We have discussed possible mechanisms for embolisation in these patients and suggested alternative methods for device retrieval. Based on this limited experience, we conclude that for tubular ducts, ceramic-coated devices should be oversized to form a tighter waist or alternate devices may be considered.

“…Since 2001, a team of Japanese pediatric cardiologists has visited Mongolia to provide children's heart catheterization, and especially to provide transcatheter occlusion of PDA. Currently, we have been using the Cera TM PDA occluder (Lifetech Scientific Co, Shenzhen, China) as choice partly based on the issue of cost. We report a patient with a gigantic PDA complicated by severe PH who was treated in this project by PDA closure with a custom‐made Cera TM PDA occluder.…”

We reported transcatheter closure of gigantic persistent ductus arteriosus (PDA) complicated by severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) using a custom-made PDA occluder. A 19-year-old lady weighing 45 kg visited to our Heart Saving Project in Mongolia with a chief complaint of shortness of breath. Contrast CT scan showed ellipsoidal section of PDA whose long axis being 28 mm, and the short axis of 21 mm. A custom-made PDA occluder, whose retention skirt, the aortic side, and the pulmonic side diameter of the body were 54, 36, 34 mm, respectively, was successfully deployed using 14-Fr sheath. Pulmonary pressure decreased around a half compared to before closure. A custom-made duct occluder could be a reasonable and cost-effective choice for transcatheter closure of gigantic PDA complicated by severe PH. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
