No immediate clinical implications in coarctation; hypothesis-generating for systemic vasoconstrictor mechanisms requiring human validation.
Does experimental coarctation of the aorta alter regional blood flows and vascular resistance in conscious dogs?
Experimental aortic coarctation in dogs induces a late generalized increase in vascular resistance even in tissues not exposed to increased arterial pressure, suggesting a systemic vasoconstrictor mechanism.
Liard et al. (1985) studied this question.
