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 ...

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 ...

We present the case of a 38-year-old male with a diagnosis of Stanford A aortic dissection and associated coarctation of the thoracic aorta. Acute dissection associated with coarctation of the aorta is a rare problem and difficult to manage surgically ...

Fluid-structure interaction simulation of pulse propagation in arteries : numerical pitfalls and hemodynamic impact of a local stiffening [PDF]
When simulating the propagation of a pressure pulse in arteries, the discretization parameters (i.e. the time step size and the grid size) need to be chosen carefully in order to avoid a decrease in amplitude of the traveling wave due to numerical ...

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).

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

Including Aortic Valve Morphology in Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations: Initial Findings and Application to Aortic Coarctation [PDF]
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations quantifying thoracic aortic flow patterns have not included disturbances from the aortic valve (AoV). 80% of patients with aortic coarctation (CoA) have a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) which may cause adverse ...
