In Silico Modelling of Aortic Strain and Strain Rate in Aortic Coarctation Treated with Stent Angioplasty with Comparison to Clinical Cohorts

Applications in Engineering Science, 2022
: Objective: Treatment of aortic coarctation has seen a shift from traditional surgical repair to the use of aortic stents. The aim of this study was to assess the impact upon hemodynamics and arterial strain when aortic coarctation is treated with a ...

Aortic stenting in the growing sheep causes aortic endothelial dysfunction but not hypertension: Clinical implications for coarctation repair [PDF]

, 2016
Stent implantation is the treatment of choice for adolescents and adults with aortic coarctation (CoAo). Despite excellent short-term results, 20%-40% of the patients develop arterial hypertension later in life, which was attributed to inappropriate ...

Abnormal wave reflections and left ventricular hypertrophy late after coarctation of the aorta repair [PDF]

, 2017
Patients with repaired coarctation of the aorta are thought to have increased afterload due to abnormalities in vessel structure and function. We have developed a novel cardiovascular magnetic resonance protocol that allows assessment of central ...

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.

Three Stage Hybrid Approach for Congenital Aortic Coarctation and Bicuspid Aortic Valve With Severe Aortic Stenosis in an Adult Patient

EJVES Short Reports, 2019
Introduction: Untreated congenital aortic coarctation and valvular abnormalities are rare in an adult patient and require complex management. Report: A 68 year old woman with congenital aortic coarctation and bicuspid aortic valve with severe aortic ...

Aortic coarctation

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2013
Background: During elbow surgery on a 20-year-old competition level volleyball player, seriously elevated arterial pressures were found. Systolic pressures were as high as 200 mmHg and diastolic pressures as high as 120 mmHg.

Computational Simulations for Aortic Coarctation: Representative Results From a Sampling of Patients [PDF]

, 2011
Treatments for coarctation of the aorta (CoA) can alleviate blood pressure (BP) gradients(D), but long-term morbidity still exists that can be explained by altered indices of hemodynamics and biomechanics.

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 ...
