This is a PDF file of an article that has undergone enhancements after acceptance, such as the addition of a cover page and metadata, and formatting for readability, but it is not yet the definitive version of record. This version will undergo additional copyediting, typesetting and review before it is published in its final form, but we are providing this version to give early visibility of the article.

Emergency retrieval of embolised patent ductus arteriosus device from the right pulmonary artery

“…Soliman et al described hybrid retrieval of embolised duct occlude device from abdominal aorta. This patient presented 2 months after the procedure, with abdominal pain 4. A multicentric Egyptian experience by Nour et al reported successful retrieval of embolised PDA device in 15 patients from main pulmonary artery, RPA and right ventricle 5.…”

Mind the gap‐missing device on the shelf? Retrospective experience with 5/7 Occlutech duct Occluder

“…Several other studies reported that the ODO's unique design can close huge ducts with associated pulmonary hypertension, which are at risk of device embolisation to the aorta. The unique shape and design allow for better stability and use in subjects with elevated PA pressures, with a potentially lower risk of paradoxical embolisation to the aorta 6,21–25 …”
