Coarctation of the aorta

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
Balloon angioplasty or early surgical correction is recommended once coarctation of the aorta has been diagnosed. Medical management is not a long-term option. The rate of restenosis is higher in infants and children than in adults, but the incidence of residual or late hypertension increases with age at initial intervention.

Coarctation of the aorta

Current Cardiology Reports, 2005
Coarctation of the aorta is an important, treatable cause of secondary hypertension. Its prevalence varies from 5% to 8% of all congenital heart defects. This condition is most often detected because of a murmur or hypertension found on routine examination.

Coarctation of the aorta

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery: Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 2000
Controversy still exists in the literature regarding definitive therapy for repair of coarctation of the aorta. Major factors involve not only the timing of repair, but also the method of repair, whether surgical or by percutaneous transluminal balloon dilatation.

Coarctation of the Aorta

Anaesthesia, 1980
Coarctation of the thoracic aorta was first resected successfully in 1944.20 Although resection has remained the most common method of repair, additional operations have been developed to encompass the anatomic variations of coarctation. The objective of all procedures is permanent relief of any gradient across the coarctation and establishment of ...

Coarctation of the Aorta

Medical Clinics of North America, 1977
Coarctation of the aorta is a cause of hypertension that can present dramatically in the severely ill infant or appear incidentally in the asymptomatic young adult. Coarctation is easily detected and there is good evidence that the extremely poor natural history can be altered favorably by surgical correction. The elevated blood pressure can be lowered

Circulation, 2001
A 51-year-old man was admitted to the hospital for cardiac catheterization because of a small ventricular septal defect documented by echocardiography. Dyspnea on exertion was the leading symptom. Physical examination revealed only weak and delayed femoral pulses, whereas blood pressure measured …

Coarctation of the Aorta

Congestive heart failure in the first weeks of life is frequently caused by coarctation of the aorta, which may be diagnosed by clinical examination. The femoral pulsations are weak or absent with the blood pressure in the arms being considerably higher than in the legs.
