Abstract
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is one of the common congenital heart diseases, accounting for 7–10% of cases and ranking third among all the heart diseases. The arterial duct, as part of the fetal circulation, is an important blood channel between the pulmonary artery and aorta during the fetal stage. The fetus does not breathe without an independent pulmonary circulation, mainly depending on the arterial duct for oxygenated blood supply. After birth, with the establishment of spontaneous breathing, independent pulmonary circulation, reduction in pulmonary vascular resistance and pulmonary circulation pressure, the arterial duct of most infants will automatically close within 1 year and degenerate into an arterial ligament. Otherwise, a PDA persists. This chapter introduces how to perform PAN procedure for PDA from femoral artery.
