[Abdominal aortic thrombosis mimicking aortic coarctation in a newborn with heart failure].
The case of a neonate in heart failure with the classical signs of coarctation of the aorta is described. Two dimension and Doppler echocardiography ruled out coarctation of the aorta and an abdominal ultrasonography detected a large thrombotic formation in the abdominal aorta, confirmed at necropsy.
