Özet

The procedure of stenting the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a palliative procedure applied as an alternative to surgery in newborns with ductus-dependent pulmonary circulation. However, it is still a very challenging method in patients with aortic arch anomalies. We describe our experience with a newborn with right atrial isomerism and dextrocardia, complete atrioventricular septal defect, aortic outlet right ventricle with pulmonary atresia, right aortic arch, and a PDA from the left innominate artery. Because the PDA was long and tortuous, we preferred placing three short stents instead of a single long stent. The procedure applied the femoral artery approach with a Glidesheath Slender to decrease arterial injuries. PDA stenting in challenging morphologies can be performed successfully using multiple short stents and via Glidesheath Slenders.
