Normal sinus rhythm and left ventricular hypertrophy signs were present in her electrocardiography. In echocardiographic examination left cardiac chamber dilatation and shunt from aorta to pulmonary rtery were revealed by color Doppler imaging. Diagnosis of patent ductus arteriosus was confirmed with transoesophagial echocardiography. Patent ductus arteriosus was closed by using 8x5 mm Amplatzer ductal occluder with transcatheter procedure by cardiac catheterization. No complications occurred during and after the procedure and the patient was discharged.
