ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
We reviewed the therapeutic results of various Duct-Occlud coils(pfm AG, Koln, Germany) to evaluate the efficacy of the most-recently modified Duct-Occlud coil(Nit-Occlud) in the transcatheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus(PDA), including large defects more than 4 mm in diameter.METHODS:
Two hundred and five patients who underwent percutaneous PDA occlusion using Duct- Occlud devices from March 1996 to December 2003 were enrolled and four types of Duct-Occlud [Standard(S), Reinforced(R), Reinforced reverse cone(RR) and Nit-Occlud(N)] were used in this study. The patients were followed up by echocardiogram and physical examination before discharge, one month, six months and 12 months after the procedure.RESULTS:
The rate of residual shunt according to the type of Duct-Occlud were as follows S-54%, R-72%, RR-50%, N-14%(P4 mm).CONCLUSION:
The transcatheter closure of PDA using Duct-Occlud was an effective treatment and our study revealed that a Nit-Occlud coil which showed higher rate of occlusion even in PDA with large diameters over than 4 mm, was a more effective modality compared to previous devices.
