Patent ductus arteriosus accounts for about 10% of congenital heart disease. Currently the preferred treatment is percutaneous closure, being the treatment of choice in most pediatric patients.
Percutaneous closure prevents the progression of heart failure, the appearance of pulmonary hypertension, and the risk of bacterial endarteritis. Since the first intervention by Porstmann, in 1967, many interventionists have described various techniques and developed different devices for the percutaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).
By the way, we present the case of a large PDA closure that constitutes cardiac catheterization No.3,000, since the procedures began in 1983 by Dr.Cesar Salinas, in the first cardiopediatric center in the country.
