Abstract:
The technique used in percutaneous embolization of a Blalock-Taussig shunt in a 35-year-old male is described. After selective catheterization of the left subclavian artery leading to the shunt, some spring coils were inserted which completely occluded the shunt. The choice of occluding material is discussed.
