There are difficulties in transcatheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in infants.
The 46 infants (mean age 6.2+/-2.7 months; mean body weight 6.3+/-1.6 kg) who underwent PDA closure using the Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO). The indication for using an ADO was a ductus diameter > or =2.5 or 3 mm. Device diameter selected was 1-3 mm larger than ductal diameter. The mean systolic pulmonary artery pressure was 40.9+/-18.2 mmHg. The mean Qp/Qs ratio was 3.1+/-1.2. The mean ductus diameter was 3.3+/-0.8 mm. ADO was successfully deployed in 45 patients. Failure occurred in 1 case. The mean diameter of device used was 5.4+/-1.1 mm. No severe complications occurred. At the 1-month echocardiographic follow-up, a small residual shunt was present in 4 of 45 patients and had disappeared in all 4 patients at the 3-month follow-up. One patient developed a moderate degree of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction 2.3 years after the procedure.
Transcatheter closure of PDA in infants using the ADO is a safe and effective method.
经导管动脉导管未闭(PDA)封堵术在婴幼儿中存在一定难度。
46 例婴儿(平均年龄 6.2+/-2.7 个月;平均体重 6.3+/-1.6 公斤)采用 Amplatzer 动脉导管未闭封堵器(ADO)进行 PDA 封堵。使用 ADO 的指征为动脉导管直径≥2.5 或 3mm。选择的器械直径比导管直径大 1-3mm。平均收缩期肺动脉压为 40.9+/-18.2mmHg。平均 Qp/Qs 比值为 3.1+/-1.2。平均动脉导管直径为 3.3+/-0.8mm。45 例患者成功放置 ADO,1 例失败。使用的器械平均直径为 5.4+/-1.1mm。无严重并发症发生。在 1 个月的超声心动图随访中,45 例患者中有 4 例存在小残余分流,所有患者在 3 个月随访时均消失。1 例患者在术后 2.3 年出现中度左心室流出道梗阻。
采用 ADO 经导管婴幼儿 PDA 封堵术是一种安全有效的方法。
