Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a common form of congenital heart disease. Adult patients with CoA may be asymptomatic or may present with hypertension. Over the last few years, endovascular management of adult patients with CoA emerged as the preferred strategy. Stent implantation, though technically challenging, offers the best and most lasting therapy. In this paper, we will review technical considerations and outcome of patients undergoing stent implantation for CoA.
主动脉缩窄(CoA)是先天性心脏病的一种常见形式。患有CoA的成年患者可能无症状,也可能出现高血压。在过去几年中,成年CoA患者的血管内治疗已成为首选策略。支架植入虽然在技术上具有挑战性,但却是最佳且最持久的治疗方法。在本文中,我们将回顾接受CoA支架植入患者的技术要点及治疗结果。
