Balloon-expandable stent treatment of experimental coarctation of the aorta: early hemodynamic and pathological evaluation.
The present study was intended to evaluate the acute and short-term hemodynamic, angiographic, and pathological response to balloon-expandable stent treatment of experimental coarctation of the aorta. A discrete thoracic coarctation was surgically created in six mongrel dogs (two adults, four puppies). Two months postoperatively all six dogs (8.9-30 kg) underwent left heart catheterization an...

Coral reef aorta is described as an uncommon entity characterized by the presence of coarse calcifications, which are developed in the visceral aorta. These calcifications grow toward the lumen of the artery and can result in significant stenosis, so that causing malperfusion of the lower limbs, visceral ischemia or hypertension secondary to renal involvement.
