Angiographic classification of patent ductus arteriosus and its clinical implications

Abstract

Objective: To study the angiographic appearance of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and provide information for clinical treatment. Methods: Between July 1994 and October 2002, 483 patients (142 male, 341 female) with isolated PDA underwent aortography before attempted transcatheter closure of PDA, the mean age was (14.6 {+-} 11.4) years (range 0.8 to 63 years). Left lateral aortography was performed in 482 patients. Among them, additional aortography in right anterior oblique 30 degree - 50 degree or left anterior oblique 60 degree - 80 degree (or plus caudal 20 degree) projection was performed in 6 and 4 patients, respectively. One patient with mirror-image dextrocardia underwent aortography in right lateral projection. Results: The configuration of PDA was classified into six types. Four hundred and twenty (87%) patients had funnel shape PDA, the mean minimum diameter of PDA was 4.2 {+-} 1.6 mm (range 1 to 15 mm). Three (0.6%) patients had window shape PDA, the diameters of PDA were 8.0 mm, 9.0 mm, and 9.0 mm, respectively. Thirty four (7.0%) patients had tubular shape PDA, the mean diameter of PDA was (5.4 {+-} 3.8) mm (range 0.8 to 20 mm). Eleven (2.3%) patients had rosary shape PDA, the mean minimum diameter of  More>>

Eleven (2.3%) patients had rosary shape PDA, the mean minimum diameter of PDA was (2.1 {+-} 0.5) mm (range 1.0 to 3.7 mm). Ten (2.1%) patients had finger shape PDA, the mean minimum diameter of PDA was (1.5 {+-} 0.4) mm (range 1.0 to 3.0 mm). Five (1.0%) patients had irregular shape PDA, the minimum diameters of PDA were 1.2, 2.1, 3.2, 4.0, and 6.0 mm, respectively. Conclusion: The morphology of PDA varied considerably, and the awareness of these variations is helpful for clinical treatment.}
