Abstract: Several coarctation of aorta (COA) severity indices are used for timing of COA intervention, and to define severity of residual coarctation post-intervention. However, it is unclear how many of these COA indices are required in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ejcts/ezw369
Abstract: Objectives Endovascular repair of traumatic injury of the aortic isthmus is a safe technique that has shown good short-term results. However, the future of these stent grafts remains unexamined, especially in relation to young patients.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/echo.15256
Abstract: Reverse flow Retrograde flow (RF) of blood in the aortic isthmus can be observed in different types of fetal heart disease (FHD), including abnormalities in heart structure and function. This study sought to investigate the… read more here.
