Aortic Coarctation [PDF]

Cardiology Clinics, 2020
Aortic coarctation is a discrete narrowing of the thoracic aorta. In addition to anatomic obstruction, it can be considered an aortopathy with abnormal vascular properties characterized by stiffness and impaired relaxation. There are surgical and transcatheter techniques to address the obstruction but, despite relief, patients with aortic coarctation ...

Pregnancy outcomes in women with aortic coarctation [PDF]

Heart, 2020
Objective Pregnancy 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.

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.

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.

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 ...

Two stage hybrid approach for complex aortic coarctation repair

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2009
Background 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.

Postoperative esophageal achalasia after repair of aortic coarctation synchronized with bilateral subclavian artery aneurysm: case report [PDF]

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Introduction The coexistence of aortic coarctation and subclavian artery aneurysm is rare, with bilateral involvement being exceptionally uncommon. The association of aortic coarctation with achalasia has not been previously reported. Neurological injury
