Coarctation of the Abdominal Aorta
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 1995Four patients with suprarenal coarctation of the abdominal aorta were managed from 1978 to 1993 (mean follow-up 8.75 years). Ages at the time of diagnosis were 2 months, 8 months, 4.5 years, and 15 years, respectively. Three children presented with severe hypertension, two of whom were in congestive heart failure, and the fourth child presented with a ...

Coarctation of the Abdominal Aorta
Diseases of the Chest, 1964The abdominal aorta is an uncommon site for coarctation. There are less than 50 case reports in the world literature and only 18 which describe reconstructive vascular surgery (Table). In the patient described in this article, there were three sites of coarctation of the abdominal aorta.

Coarctation of the abdominal aorta
RöFo - Fortschritte auf dem Gebiet der Röntgenstrahlen und der bildgebenden Verfahren, 2009Coarctation of the abdominal aorta is an uncommon process but an important cause of systemic hypertension. Angiography is the investigation of choice to establish a diagnosis and document the extent of involvement. However, angiography does not provide an etiological diagnosis; and it may not be possible to distinguish an acquired coarctation from a ...

Blunt abdominal aortic injury occurs in less than 1 % of all traumas and is associated with a high morbidity and mortality. A high index of suspicion is necessary to achieve prompt diagnosis and surgical management. The most common site of injury is to the infrarenal aorta, presenting with an intimal flap or tear and subsequent pseudoaneurysm formation

Nontraumatic Emergencies of Abdominal Aorta
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2008Nontraumatic aortic emergencies are some of the most important causes of sudden death in adults. Aneurysm rupture and aortic dissection are the most frequent among these conditions, the prompt diagnosis of which markedly improves morbidity as well as mortality.

Ultrasound of the Abdominal Aorta
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1984In recent years, ultrasound has become the study of choice for evaluating the abdominal aorta for aneurysmal dilatation. Sonography is noninvasive, relatively inexpensive, easily performed, and does not involve any ionizing radiation. It is an imaging technique in which a high-frequency sound wave produced from the vibration of a transducer crystal is

ANEURYSM OF THE ABDOMINAL AORTA
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1958SummaryAn account is given of the clinical features and the management of aneurysm of the ab‐dominal aorta.
