Balloon embolization to occlude a Blalock-Taussig shunt.

M Florentine, R R Wolfe, R I White.   

Abstract

Balloon embolization was used to successfully occlude a large residual Blalock-Taussig shunt. The use of an "upstream" nondetachable balloon catheter to reduce flow and turbulence during final positioning of the detachable balloon may have made the technique safer and more precise.
