Surgical treatment for coarctation of the aorta
Abstract
Key Clinical Message Surgical treatment is a better option for coarctation of the aorta. Abstract A 56‐year‐old man was admitted to the hospital due to chest pain. Computed tomography showed severe coarctation of the aorta distal to the left subclavian artery, with poststenotic dilatation of the descending aorta. A descending aortic replacement was performed in an uneventful manner. The postoperative course was good without symptoms.
