Several different devices were evaluated for the percutaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and important drawbacks were found in all of them. To overcome these drawbacks, both detachable Cook PDA coils and Amplatzer duct occluders (ADO) were used for the percutaneous closure of PDA. A total of 54 patients underwent transcatheter occlusion of PDA at a median age of 4.5 years (range 0.5-29 years) and at a median weight of 19.5 kg (range 6-69 kg). Three patients were adults. Detachable Cook PDA coils were used in 26 patients with a median PDA diameter of 1.7 mm (range 1.1-2.2 mm) and ADO were used in 28 patients with a median PDA diameter of 3.8 mm (range 1.9-7.5 mm). Devices were successfully implanted in all 54 patients. Complete closure was achieved in 53 of 54 patients (98% closure rate). Median fluoroscopy time was 12 min (range 4-47 min). CONCLUSIONS According to our experience, the complementary use of detachable Cook patent ductus arteriosus coils and Amplatzer duct occluders for the percutaneous closure of PDA can be recommended.
