We describe our early experience with a new technique involving temporary balloon occlusion for transcatheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) using single or multiple Gianturco coils. Coil occlusion was attempted in 21 patients of median age 3 (range 1-11) years, and angiographic PDA diame

We evaluated the immediate and intermediate follow-up results of transcatheter closure (TCC) of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) using Gianturco coils in children weighing F10 kg. The results of PDA I2.5 mm (group I, n β«Ψβ¬ 18) and G2.5 mm (group II, n β«Ψβ¬ 16) were compared. Coils were deployed sequent
Jackson screwing detachable coils, developed for arterial and venous embolization, have been successfully employed recently for the percutaneous occlusion of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Special screwing detachable coils were designed for closure of the PDA, and the experience gained by their use
