Transcatheter methods can be adapted to occlude undesired vascular structures. Intravascular coils have been used to close PDAs, aortopulmonary collaterals, and some arteriovenous malformations. In selected instances, to minimize the risk that coils may escape to threaten vital organ perfusion, cardiologists request general anesthesia with a muscle relaxant.
