Surgical and endovascular repair of aortic coarctation: normal findings and appearance of complications on CT angiography and MR angiography

Ming-Chen Paul Shih et al. AJR Am J Roentgenol. 2006 Sep.

Abstract

Objective: A variety of treatment options exist for aortic coarctation, both surgical and catheter-based. Knowledge of the normal radiologic appearance of these, as well as their typical complications, is essential for interpretation of CT and MR angiographic studies in these patients.

Conclusion: CT and MR angiography are noninvasive techniques that are well suited to follow patients after coarctation repair.
