Abstract
A 5-month-old, female, entirely domestic short-haired cat was referred for evaluation of a continuous heart murmur. No associated clinical signs were reported. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large, left-to-right shunting patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Transjugular occlusion of the defect was achieved using a Vet-PDA Occluder™ device, a new conic-shaped nitinol spiral device designed for PDA closure in small-sized dogs weighing less than 3 kg. Resolution of the continuous heart murmur was identified after device deployment. This case report demonstrates that the Vet-PDA Occluder™ can be a feasible option in feline patients for the occlusion of PDA and describes the technique step by step.
期刊介绍：
The mission of the Journal of Veterinary Cardiology is to publish peer-reviewed reports of the highest quality that promote greater understanding of cardiovascular disease, and enhance the health and well being of animals and humans. The Journal of Veterinary Cardiology publishes original contributions involving research and clinical practice that include prospective and retrospective studies, clinical trials, epidemiology, observational studies, and advances in applied and basic research.
The Journal invites submission of original manuscripts. Specific content areas of interest include heart failure, arrhythmias, congenital heart disease, cardiovascular medicine, surgery, hypertension, health outcomes research, diagnostic imaging, interventional techniques, genetics, molecular cardiology, and cardiovascular pathology, pharmacology, and toxicology.
