Review explores emerging strategies for coarctation of the aorta with aneurysms, highlighting advanced imaging and interventions.
Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a congenital malformation characterized by a localized narrowing of the aortic lumen, leading to significant hemodynamic consequences. The coexistence of aortic aneurysms in patients with CoA presents a complex clinical scenario, often requiring tailored therapeutic approaches to address both pathologies while minimizing risks. This review explores emerging strategies in the management of CoA with associated aneurysms, focusing on minimally invasive interventions, hybrid techniques, and advanced imaging modalities for precise diagnosis and treatment planning. Innovations such as endovascular stenting, custom-made grafts, and novel pharmacological therapies for vascular remodeling are discussed. Additionally, the article evaluates outcomes, potential complications, and future directions in this field. These advancements hold promise for improving long-term prognosis and quality of life in affected patients.
