Spontaneous Closure of Patent Ductus Arteriosus in an Adult Patient: A Case Report

Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA) is a well-described congenital heart disease in infants and children but is less commonly reported in adults. Mechanical, surgical and spontaneous closure of PDAs in infants and fetuses are common, however spontaneous closure of PDA in adults is uncommon and has not been reported in the recent literature. We present a case report of spontaneous closure of a PDA in a 49 years old patient demonstrated on cardiac computed tomography (CT).
