Imaging findings

Failed surgical repair of a PDA with persistent communication, characterized by high-density contrast mixing near the surgical clips. The patient also demonstrates signs of pulmonary hypertension.

Key takeaways

A persistent PDA, even after attempted repair, can lead to severe pulmonary hypertension and significant cardiac strain, visible through asymmetric contrast opacification.
