Newborns with congenital heart disease often require interventions linked to high morbidity
and mortality rates. In the last few decades, many transcatheter interventions have become …

First described in 1760 by the anatomist Morgagni, coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a
congenital heart defect characterized by narrowing the aorta, typically distal to the left …

Background Stenting of aortic coarctation (CoA) in newborns with a very low bodyweight
remains rare and challenging. In this study we aim to highlight on two points: first the …

Abstract In the USA, approximately 40,000 newborns are diagnosed with congenital heart
disease (CHD) annually, with about 1 in 4 of those having critical congenital heart disease …

To assess the efficacy and safety of a breakable BabyStent to treat complex aortic
coarctation (CoA) in early childhood. Although recommended in several guidelines, there is …

Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a potentially life-threatening congenital and obstructive
anomaly of the distal aortic arch. After constriction of the ductus arteriosus, neonates may …

Both coarctation of the aorta and interrupted aortic arch (IAA) can lead to compromised
systemic perfusion and place neonates at risk of cardiovascular collapse as the patent …

We present a case of an infant male born at 23 weeks' gestation with an interrupted aortic
arch (IAA) complex. We treated the patient with hypoxic gas ventilation to address …

Therapeutic options are limited for the management of extremely low-birth-weight infants
with critical aortic coarctation despite high doses of prostaglandin infusion. We report …

Background Preterm birth is common in children with congenital heart disease. However,
data on how to manage low-birth-weight infants with aortic coarctation are scarce and …
