Aortic Coarctation [PDF]

AORTA, 2020
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 ...

An unusual aortic coarctation [PDF]

Thorax, 1968
An 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.

Hypertension in aortic coarctation. [PDF]

Front Cardiovasc Med
Aortic coarctation (AoC) is a common congenital heart defect, affecting 5%–8% of patients with structural congenital anomalies. Despite advances in surgical and percutaneous interventions, hypertension remains a significant complication in AoC patients, even after successful repair.

Pregnancy outcomes in women with aortic coarctation [PDF]

Heart, 2020
ObjectivePregnancy in women with aortic coarctation (CoA) has an estimated moderately increased risk (mWHO II–III) of adverse cardiovascular, obstetric or fetal events, but prospective data to validate this risk classification are scarce. We examined pregnancy outcomes and identified associations with adverse outcomes.MethodsPregnancies in women with ...

Reduced Aortic Distensibility is Associated With Higher Aorto‐Carotid Wave Transmission and Central Aortic Systolic Pressure in Young Adults After Coarctation Repair

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background The long‐term prognosis of patients with repaired aortic coarctation is characterized by high rates of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease related to hypertension, the basis of which remains unclear.

Predictors of aortic dilation in patients with coarctation of the aorta: evaluation with dual-source computed tomography

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2018
Background Coarctation of aorta (CoA) may progressively develop aortic dilation at other site of the aorta and can lead to fatal aortic diseases. We aimed to evaluate the occurrence of aortic dilation and related predictors in patients with CoA using ...

Adult congenital aortic coarctation complicated by acute type a aortic intramural hematoma treated with a staged hybrid technique: a case report [PDF]

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) in adults is rare. usually combined with dilatation of the ascending aorta. Further disease progression complicated by hematoma or dissection of the ascending aorta is even more complicated and dangerous.

Vertebrobasilar insufficiency after subclavian flap aortoplasty for aortic coarctation [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques
The mainstay of treatment of pediatric aortic coarctation is open surgery. One option for repair includes subclavian flap aortoplasty, first described by Waldhausen and Nahrwold in 1966.

Effects of Uncertainty of Outlet Boundary Conditions in a Patient-Specific Case of Aortic Coarctation

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2021
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of blood flow are widely used to compute a variety of hemodynamic indicators such as velocity, time-varying wall shear stress, pressure drop, and energy losses.
