Objective: Treatment of coarctation of the aorta (CoA) patients remains an unresolved aspect of cardiac surgery. There are two groups of patients with this congenital heart defect (CHD). One group includes newborns who have juvenile CoA and other CHDs. Organs below the CoA area rely on a functioning patent ductus arteriosus for blood supply. Another group of adult patients with an isolated form of CoA primarily consists of teenagers and young males accidentally diagnosed with arterial hypertension. Treatment of patients until the early 1990s was only surgical; now, most undergo endovascular interventions. This case report describes a successful CoA stenting procedure performed on an adult patient at our center.
