Aortic coarctation

open access: yesJournal 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.

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

open access: yes, 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]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Aortic Coarctation: Recent Developments in Experimental and Computational Methods to Assess Treatments for this Simple Condition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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.

Different transcatheter strategies for aortic coarctation associated with patent ductus arteriosus

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2012
Background: Older patients with combination of aortic coarctation and large patent ductus arteriosus can be managed with transcatheter interventions. The strategies depend on anatomy of coarctation and size of ductus arteriosus. Methods: We present three

Different patterns of cerebral and muscular tissue oxygenation 10 years after coarctation repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The purpose of this study was to assess whether the lower exercise tolerance in children after coarctation repair is associated with alterations in peripheral tissue oxygenation during exercise.

Original Research. Diagnosis of the Aortic Coarctation in the Neonatal Period — a Critical Condition in the Emergency Room

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Emergencies, 2017
Background: Critical coarctation of the aorta is the most common congenital heart disease with ductal-dependent systemic circulation. In severe forms, this disease represents a critical condition, which can become life-threatening.
