The case of a 20-year-old man with patent ductus arteriosus complicated with Eisenmenger's syndrome is described. Radionuclide angiocardiography characterized the abnormal pattern of blood flow through the central circulation to establish a diagnosis of patent ductus arteriosus with a significant right-to-left shunt, which had not been indicated by other clinical findings.
