“…Since then, there have been remarkable advances in the technique for transcatheter closure of PDAs [ 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 ], and evolution is continuing with the following aims for the closure device: (1) making the device with material compatible with MRI; (2) conforming it to the full spectrum of PDA sizes and shapes; (3) permitting it to be safely delivered with a sheath of small diameter; (4) allowing free retrievability of the device; (5) crafting a device that will permanently occlude the PDA. Closure by an interventional occluder device is the primary therapeutic choice in infants, children, and adults with a small or moderate size symptomatic PDA [ 1 , 11 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ].…”
