Abstract

Patent ductus arteriosus is a common condition in preterm neonates, often necessitating medical or surgical intervention. This report presents a case of a preterm neonate born at 27 gestational weeks and who experienced patent ductus arteriosus rupture during a device closure procedure. Patent ductus arteriosus rupturing during device closure is rare and life threatening but can be successfully managed with prompt recognition and intervention.
