Abstract:
Objective To report our experience on closure of patent arterial duct using Hem-o-lok polymer ligating clip under a direct vision.Methods From May 2001 to May 2007,84 patients with cast patent arterial duct were treated with Hem-o-lok polymer ligating clips.Under a direct vision,the clips were placed to close the patent arterial duct through a small left subaxillary incision.Results The mean operation time was 42 minutes(ranged from 30 to 60).No intraoperative bleeding occurred in this series.After the operation,heart murmur disappeared in all the patients and none of them died.They were followed up for 2 to 50 months(mean 28 months),during which no residual shunting or recanalization occurred.Conclusion It is microinvasive and safe to close patent arterial duct by using Hem-o-lok polymer ligating clip.
