  • Clinical investigation of percutaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus under echocardiography guidance

    Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of percutaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) solely under echocardiography guidance. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 200 patients who received the percutaneous closure of PDA under echocardiography guidance in Fuwai Hospital from August 2013 to April 2016. According the different approach, they were divided into 2 groups: a femoral artery approach group (n=143) and a femoral vein approach group (n=57). In the femoral artery approach group, there were 42 males and 101 females aged 3.20±5.63 years. In the femoral vein group, there were 10 males and 47 females aged 7.30±11.36 years. All Patients were treated by percutaneous PDA closure solely under echocardiography guidance. The follow-up was performed at one month after the operation by echocardiography, chest radiograph and electrocardiogram. Results All 200 patients were successfully treated with percutaneous closure of PDA. The patients’ gender, in-hospital stay, rates of occluder detachment were similar between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with the femoral vein approach group, the femoral artery approach group had a younger age (3.20±5.63 yearsvs. 7.30±11.36 years, P<0.001), less body weight (14.25±11.54 kgvs. 24.25±19.14 kg, P<0.001) and shorter diameter of PDA (3.06±0.79 mmvs. 5.93±0.68 mm, P<0.001) and PDA occluders (5.43±1.00 mmvs. 12.14±0.54 mm, P<0.001), but had higher hospitalization expenses (32 108.2±3 100.2 yuanvs.25 120.7±3 534.1 yuan, P<0.001). In the femoral vein approach group, one patient was closed under radiation guidance because guide wires could not pass through PDA. One patient in the femoral artery approach group suffered from occluder detachment at one day after operation and was cured by transthoracic minimally invasive PDA occlusion. There were no complications of occluder detachment, residual shunt, pericardial effusion or left pulmonary stenosis during the follow-up. Conclusion Echocardiography-guided percutaneous PDA closure is safe and effective, while the proper interventional approach should be chosen by the anatomical features of PDA.
