Aortic Coarctation.
Cardiology Clinics 2020 August
Aortic coarctation is a discrete narrowing of the thoracic aorta. In addition to anatomic obstruction, it can be considered an aortopathy with abnormal vascular properties characterized by stiffness and impaired relaxation. There are surgical and transcatheter techniques to address the obstruction but, despite relief, patients with aortic coarctation are at risk for hypertension, aortic complications, and abnormalities with left ventricular performance. This review covers the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of adults with aortic coarctation, with emphasis on multimodality imaging characteristics and lifelong surveillance to identify long-term complications.
