|October 1, 1977
Abstract:
A case of patent ductus arteriosus in a newborn is presented. This malformation could be clasified as belonging to the group of ductal aneurysms with an obstructed pulmonary end. Only 13 similar cases have been previously described in the literature. As there exits hardly any experience with this disease the clinical course and diagnostic procedures have been discussed. Resection of the aneurysm is the only therapeutic measure.
