[Severe hemolysis after endoluminal closure of the ductus arteriosus and recovery following implantation of a second obturator].
A few hours after closure of a large patent ductus arteriosus by the endoluminal approach in a 28 month old infant, severe hemolysis occurred due to incomplete closure; cure was obtained by the implantation of a second obturator by the femoral vein. Definitive complete occlusion of the ductus was followed by immediate disappearance of the hemolysis.
