Abstract

A 5 year old girl underwent recanalisation after coil embolisation of a persistent ductus arteriosus. Recanalisation is uncommon after coil embolisation and may be related to shrinkage of the coil, a change in its position, and ductal shape.

  • persistent ductus arteriosus
  • coil embolisation
  • recanalisation
