Strategy for adult aortic coarctation complicated by coronary artery disease.
Aortic coarctation in adults is sometimes associated with a fragile aortic wall and may be complicated by coronary artery disease and ascending aortic dilation. Successful management of aortic coarctation in a 45-year-old man with coronary artery disease is described. Tube graft replacement was carried out without cross clamping, under circulatory arrest with axillary artery and graft inflow.
