Controlled hypotension during operation for coarctation of the aorta.
Since 1948 61 patients have been operated on for coarctation of the aorta at the University Hospital, Copenhagen. The technical problems of this operation are largely due to the high blood pressure proximal to the stenosis and in the highly developed and dilated collaterals which are forced to act as a by-pass round the stenosis. These dilated and fragile vessels, particularly the intercostal a...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic studies during operation for coarctation of the aorta.
Considerable attention has recently been focussed upon the disturbance of cardiac rhythm that may occur during intrathoracic surgery (Meek et al., 1937, and Burstein, 1946). These arrhythmias may vary from the relatively innocuous nodal rhythm and shifting pacemaker to cardiac standstill and ventricular fibrillation. Several initiating factors have been described, among which are cyclopropane a...

SUMMARY: Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital heart disease consisting 7% of total congenital heart diseases. Its prevalence in men is 2 times more than that in women. This disease is associated with other congenital diseases. including aortic bicuspid valve, the linkage between two ventricles and arteriole channel It is often seen in the Turner syndrome which may lead to complications su...
متن کاملCoarctation of the Aorta
Coarctation of the aorta is defined by a discrete narrowing of the aorta. Transcatheter systolic coarctation gradient 20 mm Hg is an indication for intervention with treatment choice guided by patient age and anatomy of obstruction. Follow-up imaging should be tailored to early identification of recoarctation/aneurysm with directed intervention. Hypertension is common in the aging patient with ...
متن کاملCoarctation of the aorta
The surgical treatment of an aortic coarctation requires a resection of the stenotic area and direct suture of the aorta. An extended mobilization allows an enlargement of a hypoplastic distal aortic arch. In ductal dependent circulation, the distal aortic arch can be enlarged with a patch before tackling the coarctation itself. Postsurgical aortic arch stenoses often require a surgical interve...
