Three patients were treated for patent ductus arteriosus with the use of the Rashkind PDA Occluder System. Successful closure was accomplished in 2 children without any complication. Residual shunt was seen in the third patient. A second occlusion device was planned to implant 6 months later in this patient. We agree with the previously made conclusion that transcatheter closure of patent ductus arteriosus is feasible in the majority of children with PDA.
