Management of Severe Coarctation of the Aorta and Bilateral Carotid Artery Stenosis
We present a case of an adult with concurrent severe aortic coarctation, bilateral carotid artery stenosis, and anomalous right subclavian artery, posing the interventional dilemma of accepting potential cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome vs hypoperfusion ...

Endovascular management of a rare complication of an aortic coarctation
A 28-year-old pregnant woman presents with arterial hypertension of the upper limbs. The examination suggests an aortic coarctation. After a normal delivery, a contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a subocclusive aortic coarctation of the ...

A nano‐interception strategy disrupts pathogenic fibroblast–macrophage crosstalk in chronic heart failure. Scalable Prussian blue nanoparticles selectively sequester CCL2 via ultrahigh‐affinity binding, preventing CCR2+ macrophage recruitment and breaking a key fibro‐inflammatory circuit. This approach demonstrates robust efficacy in murine and porcine

Quantification of Local Hemodynamic Alterations Caused by Virtual Implantation of Three Commercially Available Stents for the Treatment of Aortic Coarctation [PDF]
Patients with coarctation of the aorta (CoA) are prone to morbidity including atherosclerotic plaque that has been shown to correlate with altered wall shear stress (WSS) in the descending thoracic aorta (dAo).

A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions
This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...

The chest x-ray in delayed presentation of coarctation of the aorta [PDF]
This article shows the chest radiograph of a thirteen-year-old male. The study demonstrates bilateral notching of the inferior borders of the 3rd-8th posterior ribs, a finding associated with coarctation of the aorta.

Ascending to descending aortic prosthesis with reimplantation of brachiocephalic vessels in aneurysm of the arch and descending aorta for hypoplasia of the arch and coarctation of the aorta [PDF]
Thoracic aortic aneurysm is one of the most serious pathologies of cardiovascular surgery. Occurrence of an aneurysm in the proximal or distal part of the aortic arch is a recognized complication of uncorrected aortic coarctation and is associated with a
