Event Description

The article, ¿percutaneous closure of severe calcified patent ductus arteriosus with two amplatzer devices¿, was reviewed.The article presents a case study of an 89-year-old woman with patent ductus arteriosus (pda) with severe calcification.It was reported on an unknown date that a 6-6mm amplatzer duct occluder ii was chosen for implant to occlude a patient¿s pda that measured 6mm in diameter and 14mm for ductus length.After the 6-6mm amplatzer duct occluder ii was implanted, it was seen via angiography there was a residual shunt through the pda.The physician released the occluder hoping the residual shunt would disappear due to endothelialization.It was later reported a few months later on an unknown date, follow up transthoracic echocardiography (tte) showed no improvement in the residual shunt and the patient symptoms worsened.A decision was made to implant a 14-10mm amplatzer vascular plug ii.After a successful implant, it was noted the residual shunt had disappeared.The article concluded that pda in elderly individuals commonly features severe calcification.However, severe calcification can prevent endothelialization due to lack of appropriate deployment.An additional avp ii could be helpful in case of closure difficulty by a single pda device.[(b)(6).].
