چکیده
It was found that the ductus arteriosus is a muscular channel and resembles the muscular artery in structure. The diameter of the ductus is equal throughout its length. At the orifice of the ductus to the aorta the cells of its wall blend with those of the aorta. The primordia of the tunica media of the aorta and the pulmonary trunk consist of regularly arranged, circular layers which are more evident than the layers forming the wall of the dutcus arteriosus.

The ductus arteriosus (DA) is a vital structure in fetal circulation, carrying about two thirds of the right ventricular (RV) output to the aorta. During fetal life, ductal patency is actively preserved by several different factors, and pathologic ductal constriction causes right-sided pressure overload of the heart, leading to RV failure. There have been many reports of ductal constricti...
متن کاملPatent ductus arteriosus in a lamb: A case report
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a persistent patency of a vessel normally present in the fetus that connects the pulmonary arterial system to the aorta. The ductus arteriosus fails to close at birth when breathing commences and placental blood circulation is removed. Closure of the ductus arteriosus arises in response to decline pulmonary vascular resistance and increased systemic vascular re...

متن کاملIntravenous Paracetamol and Patent Ductus Arteriosus Closure
Background: Standard medical treatments for patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) closure are, including indomethacin/ibuprofen and surgical ligation. Nowadays, a new strategy to close PDA is the use of paracetamol. The present study aimed to describe the use of intravenous (IV) paracetamol for PDA closure in neonates who present a contraindication to ibuprofen or ibuprofen failure with no possibility...
متن کاملPatent ductus arteriosus--looking for the right approach of management.
In majority of healthy preterm neonates, ductus arteriosus closes spontaneously by 3-7 days after birth [1]. However, three-fourth of very preterm neonates with respiratory distress may continue to have a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) at end of first week of life. Persistent patency of ductus arteriosus increases blood flow through pulmonary vascular bed and decreases blood flow through cerebr...
