Abstract Ductus arteriosus is a physiological structure if not closed after birth, may lead to many complications. Today, trans-catheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus with Occluder devices is the preferred method. Surgical ligation is used only in certain cases such as large symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus in very small infants and premature babies; unfavourable structure of the duct or economic considerations. In this article, we described haemodynamic and morphological characteristics of five patients with large patent ductus arteriosus which were occluded with Amplatzer device. From 23 January, 2010 to 31 July, 2018, five patients referred to our clinic with large patent ductus arteriosus and pulmonary arterial hypertension for further evaluation. After assessing them with various diagnostic methods, we decided to close defect with ventricular septal defect Occluder device. Patients aged 21–44 years and one of them was male. Ductus closure was successfully done with ventricular septal defect Occluder device. Closure was successful for all of them but in one case, whose device was embolized to pulmonary artery after 24 hr and he underwent surgery. Trans-catheter closure of large patent ductus arteriosus in adult patients with pulmonary hypertension is feasible. Despite the fact that complications may occur even with the most experienced hands, the ‘double disk’ Amplatzer ventricular septal defect muscular Occluder could be advantageous in this setting.

Abstract It is not uncommon to have prolapse of the atrial septal occluder device despite accurate measurement of atrial septal defect and an appropriately chosen device. This is particularly a problem in cases with large atrial septal defect with absent aortic rim. Various techniques have been described for successful implantation of atrial septal occluder in such a scenario. The essence of all these techniques is to prevent prolapse of the left atrial disc through the defect while the right atrial disc is being deployed. In this brief report, we illustrate the use of cobra head deformity of the device to successfully deploy the device across the atrial septum.

AbstractWe present the case of a 15-year-old boy who underwent arterial switch operation due to transposition of the great arteries with severe scoliosis, obstruction of the right coronary ostium, and severe stenosis of the pulmonary trunk. Balloon angioplasty caused a large aortopulmonary shunt provoking myocardial ischaemia and pulmonary hypertension. The traumatic “aortopulmonary window” was percutaneously occluded using an Amplatzer Septal Occluder device as a bridge to surgical repair.

 Introduction: Transcatheter closure is a treatment choice for the most children with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). The closure of the ductus is indicated in any child or adolescent with developed symptoms of significant L-R shunt. The aim of this article is to present our results in 5 years treatment of patients with PDA and their outcome. Methods: From 2009 to 2014, 30 patients underwent a transcatheter closure of PDA at Centre for Heart and Pediatric clinic of Clinical University Centre of Sarajevo. Aortic angiogram was performed to evaluate the size, position, and shape of the duct for selection of appropriate occluder device type and size. All procedures were performed by local team of cardiologists from the Department of Cardiology, Pediatric clinic, with invasive cardiologists team from Sweden and Austria. Echocardiography was repeated at intervals of 24 hours, then 1month, 3 months, and 1 year after the procedure to assess the outcome. Results: Thirty patients underwent transcatheter closure of PDA during the study period. PDA of ≤ 2.0 mm was present in 8 patients and they underwent PDA closure with coils, while 22 patients had PDA diameter  ≥ 2 mm, and they were treated by Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO). Only in 2 (6.2%) patients complications have been observed. The length of hospital stay after the treatment was two to three days. Conclusion: Transcatheter closure of PDA is a modern, safe and efficient method that ensures a faster recovery of the patients, shortens the length of hospitalization.
