The role of posterior aortopexy in the treatment of left mainstem bronchus compression [PDF]

, 2016
OBJECTIVES: We reviewed the role of posterior aortopexy for left mainstem bronchus compression in infants and children. METHODS: Eighteen children with respiratory symptoms were enrolled between 2005 and 2015 for surgical decompression of the left ...

Coarctation of the aorta [PDF]

Thorax, 1970
In a series of 70 patients who had surgical correction of coarctation of the aorta between 1952 and 1969, the operative mortality was 7% and the complication rate was 14%. The mortality was particularly high in adult males over 30, with pre-operative evidence of left ventricular ischaemia.

Impact of Treatment Modality on Vascular Function in Coarctation of the Aorta: The LOVE‐COARCT Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Optimally treated patients with coarctation of the aorta remain at risk for late vascular dysfunction. The effect of treatment modality on vascular function is unknown.

Long-term outcomes of surgical repair of isolated coarctation of the aorta in different age groups

BMC Surgery, 2023
Background Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is one of the most common congenital heart defects (5–8% of all CHD). Treatment of native CoA may be accomplished surgically, or through an interventional approach.

Computational simulations demonstrate altered wall shear stress in aortic coarctation patients previously treated by resection with end-to-end anastomosis [PDF]

, 2011
Background.  Atherosclerotic plaque in the descending thoracic aorta (dAo) is related to altered wall shear stress (WSS) for normal patients. Resection with end-to-end anastomosis (RWEA) is the gold standard for coarctation of the aorta (CoA) repair, but

Balloon dilatation and stenting for aortic coarctation: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2016
Background—There is no systematic assessment of available evidence on effectiveness and comparative effectiveness of balloon dilatation and stenting for aortic coarctation. Methods and Results—We systematically searched 4 online databases to identify and

Coarctation of Aorta Masquerading as a Spinal Arteriovenous Malformation: A Case Report

European Medical Journal Cardiology
Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital disease involving the cardiovascular system. It has a varied presentation and is often under-diagnosed in clinical practice. The authors report a case of an unusual presentation of coarctation of the aorta with a

Descending thoracic aorta–abdominal aortic bypass and bilateral renal arterial blood circulation reconstruction are effective in atypical coarctation of the aorta with heart failure: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Background There are a lot of reports of the renal failure and heart failure due to coarctation of the aorta. However, there are no case reports in which revascularization dramatically improved left ventricular function in patients with progressive ...

The role of aortic compliance in determination of coarctation severity: Lumped parameter modeling, in vitro study and clinical evaluation [PDF]

, 2015
Early detection and accurate estimation of the extent of coarctation of the aorta (COA) is critical to long-term outcome. Peak-to-peak trans-coarctation pressure gradient (PKdP) higher than 20 mmHg is an indication for interventional/surgical repair ...
