Successful Transcatheter Closure of a Residual Patent Ductus Arteriosus with Complex Anatomy after Surgical Ligation Using an Amplatzer Ductal Occluder Guided by Live Three-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography

Residual patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) after surgical ligation is not common, but the anatomy of the residual duct may be distorted by the surgical ligation resulting in a difficult transcatheter closure. Such distorted anatomy of the duct may not be demonstrated by the two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (2D TEE). Fortunately, live 3D TEE provided the precise anatomy of the elongated distorted residual duct, and as in the case presented herein, guided the Amplatzer ductal occluder (ADO). We concluded that live 3D TEE provided novel images of complex residual ducts and successful guidance of a ductal occluder.

“…Furthermore, 2D TEE had a stronger correlation to angiographic measurements than CD TEE. 22 FPNA and CD TTE provide a noninvasive means of approximating the quantitative residual ductal flow. CD TTE and TEE routinely overestimated angiographic minimum ductal diameter, a finding in agreement with a previous report in children.…”

Background: Transcatheter occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a minimally invasive treatment option in dogs. Device selection based on appropriately acquired PDA dimensions and morphology can minimize procedural complications, including minimizing residual ductal flow and inappropriate embolization. Hypothesis: Transesophageal echocardiographic (TEE) derived minimum ductal diameter measurements would most accurately reflect angiographic measurements. Color Doppler (CD) TEE and transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) ductal measurements would overestimate two-dimensional (2D) measurements. Animals: Fifteen client-owned dogs with PDA. Methods: PDA dimensions obtained with angiography, 2D and CD TTE, 2D and CD TEE from the right and left views were prospectively evaluated. Results: PDA dimensions were measured by using TEE most closely approximated angiographic measures. CD TTE and TEE frequently overestimated angiographic measures of minimum ductal diameter. TEE accurately identified a type III (tubular) PDA morphology in 1 dog. Fourteen of 15 dogs were determined to have hemodynamically significant reductions in left to right shunting documented by a first-pass nuclear angiocardiographic ratio of pulmonary to systemic blood flow #1.2 and trivial (n 5 3) to no (n 5 11) CD TTE flow at approximately 1 month after PDA occlusion. Conclusions: TEE provided accurate anatomic information regarding PDA morphology and closely approximated angiographic ductal dimensions while aiding in both coil deployment and confirmation of intra-operative ductal closure.

Expert Review of Medical Devices

Introduction: Since King and Mills' pioneering work in percutaneous closure devices of secundum atrial septal defects (ASD) four decades ago, developments in device shape, material and implantation technique led to adoption of percutaneous ASD closure as current treatment of choice. Not only was the feasibility of such a percutaneous procedure tested altogether, but pursuing the ideal device in terms of safety and efficacy became priority. Areas covered: In this review we present the historical development of ASD devices in design, material and technique with clinical data, and provide the future perspectives in percutaneous ASD closures. Expert opinion: An 'ideal device' requires complete defect closure with negligible risk of complications using a safe, straightforward delivery technique with repositioning and retrieving properties. Some of the devices currently at hand come close to fulfilling these criteria, however none seem to provide those prerequisites completely. By understanding how challenges in device development were overcome in the past, new insights into future improvements are given. ARTICLE HISTORY
