Transcatheter Occlusion of a Modified Blalock–Taussig Shunt Using the Amplatzer Vascular Plug with the Catheter–Snare Technique

摘要

A 16-month-old boy with previous repair of a critical pulmonary stenosis had persistence of a right modified Blalock–Taussig shunt. Transcatheter occlusion of the modified Blalock–Taussig shunt was achieved using the Amplatzer vascular plug with the catheter–snare technique.
