Abstract
We present the first described use of the Gianturco-Grifka Vascular occlusi on Device to close a moderate patent ductus arteriosus associated with the rare congenital condition of right aortic arch with isolation of the left s ubclavian artery. Left vertebral artery "steal" through the moderate patent ductus arteriosus was eliminated by this transcatheter technique. Cathet. Cardiovasc. Intervent. 47:320-322, 1999. (C) 1999 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
