Coarctation of abdominal aorta constitutes a rare group of vascular abnormalities, including segmental stenoses and extended hypoplasia below the restriction. Usually hypertension is the only clinical evidence. The natural history of the surgically untreated disease foresees a decline of life expectancy; while surgical operation permit an almost complete "restitutio ad integrum". The Authors report a case of coarctation of the abdominal aorta come to their observation whose particularly was determined by the absence of high blood pressure, the aortic stenoses being located under the renal arteries.
腹主动脉缩窄是一组罕见的血管异常，包括节段性狭窄以及狭窄以下的广泛性发育不全。通常高血压是唯一的临床证据。未经手术治疗的该病自然病程预示着预期寿命会下降；而手术则可实现几乎完全的“复原”。作者报告了一例他们所观察到的腹主动脉缩窄病例，其特点是没有高血压，主动脉狭窄位于肾动脉下方。
