[Importance of ultrasonic studies in diagnosing and assessing heart function in aortic coarctation in adults].
Aortic coarctation was diagnosed with the aid of sectorial scanning from the suprasternal position in 6 of 7 patients. Ultrasonic investigation allows one to assess myocardial status and detect a prolapse of the atrioventricular valves, aortal valve protrusion, the presence of a bicuspid aortal valve and other abnormalities accompanying aortic coarctation in adult patients.
