Relationship Between Pulmonary Arterial Resistance and Compliance in Patients with Down Syndrome.

abstract：:Different devices have been used for percutaneous closure of ventricular septal defects (VSDs). Over the past 6 months, we have used the Amplatzer duct occluder for VSDs associated with tunnel-shaped aneurysm in three patients here at our institution. Due to the anatomic resemblance between such VSDs and the duct occl...
