An unusual aortic coarctation [PDF]
Thorax, 1968An unusual variety of aortic coarctation is described in which the left common carotid, left subclavian, and aberrant right subclavian arteries arose distal to the coarcted segment. The literature relating to unusual coarctation is briefly reviewed.

Two stage hybrid approach for complex aortic coarctation repair [PDF]
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2009Background Management of an adult patient with aortic coarctation and an associated cardiac pathology poses a great surgical challenge since there are no standard guidelines for the therapy of such complex pathology.

Internal mammary artery dilatation in a patient with aortic coarctation, aortic stenosis, and coronary disease. Case report [PDF]
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2011The ideal surgical approach is unclear in adult patients with coarctation of the aorta that is associated with other cardiovascular pathologies that require intervention. Standard median sternotomy allows simultaneous, coronary revascularization surgery,

Single-stage repair of adult aortic coarctation and concomitant cardiovascular pathologies: a new alternative surgical approach [PDF]
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2006Background Coarctation of the aorta in the adulthood is sometimes associated with additional cardiovascular pathologies that require intervention. Ideal approach in such patients is uncertain.

AbstractWe report a case of a 45-year-old male suffering from arterial hypertension who was found to have an aortic coarctation with marked hypertrophic compensatory collateral arterial circulation. Although coarctation is relatively rare, this must be included in the differential diagnosis in patients with arterial hypertension with a positive ...

Giant descending aortic pseudo-aneurysm in an adult man with uncorrected aortic coarctation
The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2021Background Aortic coarctation (CoAo) accounts for 6 to 8% of all congenital heart diseases and occurs two to five times more often in males. The uncorrected aortic coarctation is complicated by hypertension, ascending and descending aortic aneurysms ...

Mathematical modeling of shear-activated targeted nanoparticle drug delivery for the treatment of aortic diseases [PDF]
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology (2021), 2021The human aorta is a high-risk area for vascular diseases, which are commonly restored by thoracic endovascular aortic repair. In this paper, we report a promising shear-activated targeted nanoparticle drug delivery strategy to assist in the treatment of coarctation of the aorta and aortic aneurysm.

Hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during thoracic endovascular aortic repair [PDF]
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology (2022), 2021Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become the standard treatment of a variety of aortic pathologies. The objective of this study is to evaluate the hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during TEVAR. Three idealized representative diseased aortas of aortic aneurysm, coarctation of the aorta, and aortic dissection were ...
