Different transcatheter strategies for aortic coarctation associated with patent ductus arteriosus

Indian 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

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 ...

Mind the Brain: Stroke Risk in Young Adults With Coarctation of the Aorta

Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Before the advent of surgery to repair coarctation of the aorta (CoA), this diagnosis carried a rather grim prognosis. Many affected infants died in the first year of life. Of those surviving infancy, the life expectancy was greatly diminished. From 1956
