Aortic coarctation and associated cardiac lesions-optimal therapeutic approach: Report of 2 cases [PDF]
Introduction. Aortic coarcation is a congenital condition mostly detected and treated during childhood. Adult patients with coarctation and associated cardiac lesions represent a challenge and a subject of debates concerning adequate treatment. We report

Resumen: La coartación aórtica puede aparecer aislada o asociada a otras lesiones. La asociación más frecuente es la válvula aórtica bicúspide, que no suele ser problemática a corto-medio plazo, pero se asocia tardíamente a complicaciones en la aorta ...

Gene Expression in Experimental Aortic Coarctation and Repair: Candidate Genes for Therapeutic Intervention? [PDF]
Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a constriction of the proximal descending thoracic aorta and is one of the most common congenital cardiovascular defects.

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

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.

Echocardiography during submaximal isometric exercise in children with repaired coarctation of the aorta compared with controls [PDF]
Objective Patients with repaired coarctation (RCoA) remain at higher risk of cardiac dysfunction, initially often only detected during exercise. In this study, haemodynamics of isometric handgrip (HG) and bicycle ergometry (BE) were compared in patients ...

Aortic Coarctation: Recent Developments in Experimental and Computational Methods to Assess Treatments for this Simple Condition [PDF]
Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is often considered a relatively simple disease, but long-term outcomes suggest otherwise as life expectancies are decades less than in the average population and substantial morbidity often exists.
