The use of a three-dimensional print model of an aortic arch to plan a complex percutaneous intervention in a patient with coarctation of the aorta.
Recently, three-dimensional printing of heart models is being used to plan percutaneous and surgical interventions in patients with CHD. We describe a case where we used a three-dimensional print model to plan a complex percutaneous intervention in a patient with coarctation of the aorta.
