  • Title: Aneurysmal dilatation of the ductus arteriosus in a neonate.
    Author: Siu BL, Kovalchin JP, Kearney DL, Fraser CD, Fenrich AL.
    Journal: Pediatr Cardiol; 2001; 22(5):403-5. PubMed ID: 11526417.
    Abstract:
    Fetal ultrasound provides the capacity for early detection of a variety of congenital heart diseases. We report a case of aneurysmal dilatation of a patent ductus arteriosus detected in utero and subsequently confirmed by transthoracic echocardiography in the neonatal period. Prompt recognition of the ductus aneurysm with resultant surgical ligation may have averted potentially serious complications from this condition.
