  • Title: Iatrogenic coarctation after coil occlusion of arterial duct.
    Author: Aydoğan U, Batmaz G, Tansel T.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2002 Mar; 10(1):72-4; discussion 74-5. PubMed ID: 12079979.
    Abstract:
    Coil occlusion of a patent ductus arteriosus was performed in an 8.5-month-old girl with a large left-to-right shunt through a wide arterial duct. Post-occlusion echocardiography revealed iatrogenic obstruction of the aorta caused by protrusion of the loops of the Jackson coil into the descending aorta. The problem resolved spontaneously during follow-up.
