Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous stent implantation for native aortic coarctation. Methods Five patients with native coarctation of the aorta underwent percutaneous endovascular angioplasty and stenting. Immediate and long-term outcomes were assessed in terms of blood pressure changes, procedure complications, and medications. Results Compared before and after stenting, the pressure gradient associated with the stenotic segment was decreased immediately after stenting [(73?6) mm?Hg vs (8?2) mm?Hg, P
