Abstract

We report the first human implantation of an angulated plug in a 5 mm PDA in a child of 11 kg. Implanted through a 5 Fr sheath, the plug showed excellent anatomical alignment. Complete occlusion was documented after 6 hr. This device will extend the limits for interventional closure of PDA.
