title: Management of pediatric visceral arterial and aortic coarctation.
abstract: Two unusual pediatric vascular problems have been managed surgically. The first patient is a five-and-a half-year old girl who presented with renal artery stenosis and aneurysm and renovascular hypertension. This was treated by excision of the aneurysm and reimplantation of the right renal artery. The second patient is a two-year old girl with atresia of the abdominal aorta, superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and both renal arteries. She was treated by PTFE patch graft angioplasty of the aorta, SMA reimplantation and bilateral aorto-renal autogenous saphenous vein bypass.
