[Failures and complications of transcatheter coil occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus].
An analysis of fails and complications of transcatheter coil occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) was made. An attempt to close PDA with Gianturco coils was undertaken in 132 patients. Fails were noted in 4 (3.1%) children, 3 of them failed to hold the coil in PDA due to its greater width, and in 1 patient the catheter could not be delivered through a narrow duct. Complications were noted in 9 patients (7%): migration of the coils into the pulmonary artery branches took place in 8 patients, and in 1 patient there appeared haemolysis due to a large residual shunt. Snare-assisted removal of the migrating coils was carried out in 7 children, in 1 girl the coil could not be extracted from the peripheral branch of the left pulmonary artery. In 7 patients reocclusion of PDA was made, in 1 case no reembolization was performed. Haemolysis was liquidated by an additional implantation of the coils in repeated procedure. Risk of fail and complications was associated with great minimal diameter of patent ductus arteriosus.
