Key result
A two-staged surgical approach consisting of aortic valve replacement followed by aorto-subclavian bypass was successfully performed in a 63-year-old male with severe aortic stenosis and aortic coarctation, resulting in an uneventful two-year follow-up.
Why the study?
Aortic coarctation with cardiac lesions is a complex clinical situation requiring surgical treatment of different pathologies with different strategies.

Demonstrates a two-staged surgical approach for managing complex adult congenital heart disease involving aortic coarctation and severe aortic stenosis.
May support staged repair for coarctation with severe AS; leaves open need for larger studies before practice change.
Aortic coarctation is a congenital vascular lesion, usually diagnosed and corrected in childhood or early adulthood. Most of the untreated patients with aortic coarctation die before the age of 50 years. Coarctation with cardiac lesions is a complex clinical situation that necessitates surgical treatment of different pathologies with different strategies. In this, study we report two-staged surgical treatment of aortic coarctation with severe aortic stenosis consist of aortic valve replacement and aorto-subclavian bypass in a 63-year-old male patient.

Altınbaş et al. (2021) conducted a case report in Aortic coarctation accompanied by severe aortic stenosis (n=1). Two-staged surgical treatment (aortic valve replacement followed by aorto-subclavian bypass) was evaluated on Clinical recovery and survival. A two-staged surgical approach consisting of aortic valve replacement followed by aorto-subclavian bypass was successfully performed in a 63-year-old male with severe aortic stenosis and aortic coarctation, resulting in an uneventful two-year follow-up.
