Abstract |
We experienced a case of coarctation of the aorta with aneurysmal dilatation which was
located in aortic arch, who was a 13 year old male.On physical examination on admission,
pulses were weak in right radial artery and in both femoral artery. Blood pressure measured 100/70 mmHg
in right arm, 100/70 mmHg in left arm, 130/110 mmHg in right leg and 130/110 mmHg in left leg.
Systolic murmur was heard on left upper sternal border. Final preoperative diagnosis was coarctation of the
aorta which was located in between the innominate artery and the left common carotid artery.
A poststenotic aneurysmal dilation was seen and the proximal site of the innominate artery was narrowed.
Bypass Graft between the ascending aorta and the descending aorta was done with a 12 mm and 18 mm
Woven Dacron Graft. After operation, blood pressure measured 120/80 mmHg in right arm, 120/80 mmHg
in left arm, 140/100 mmHg in right leg and 140/100 mmHg in left leg.
