Suggests surgical reintervention may be feasible for late post-coarctation complications in experienced centers; leaves open need for larger series to guide practice.
Case Report (n=9)
Surgical management of late complications following aortic coarctation repair can be performed with low mortality and immediate symptom relief by experienced aortic teams.
Olayiwola et al. (2023) conducted a case report in Late complications following aortic coarctation repair (n=9). Surgery for late complications was evaluated on Surgical outcomes (mortality, stroke, symptom resolution). Surgery for late complications of aortic coarctation repair in 9 patients resulted in no mortality, one stroke, and immediate disappearance of all symptoms.
