title: [Magnetic resonance tomography imaging of Botallo's duct--a case report].
abstract: In a female patient suffering from renal insufficiency in whom angiography could not be performed, it was possible to confirm the diagnosis of a ductus arteriosus (Botallo's duct) by magnetic resonance imaging. The present case report shows that it is possible to visualise this congenital heart disease by MRI. This can be of importance especially if angiography cannot be performed (as in this case) because of renal insufficiency or because of contrast medium allergy.
