Abstract
A case of successfully operated neonatal ductus arteriosus aneurysm is described. Cardiac catheterization was performed to confirm the diagnosis because of a misinterpretation of the anatomy on transthoracic echocardiography. Rupture, embolism and infection are described complications of such aneurysms. Surgery should therefore be recommended without delay.
