  • Title: Infra-renal abdominal aorta hypoplasia in a case of Down syndrome depicted by multidetector computed tomography angiography.
    Author: Kantarci M, Doganay S, Bozkurt M, Caner I, Ceviz N.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Med (Hagerstown); 2009 Mar; 10(3):276-8. PubMed ID: 19262217.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 3-day-old newborn with Down syndrome suffering from congenital infra-renal aortic hypoplasia. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a Down syndrome case with infra-renal abdominal aorta hypoplasia depicted by multidetector computed tomography angiography. In cases with no palpable pulsations in the lower extremities, multidetector computed tomography angiography is a fast and reliable diagnostic tool for the evaluation of distal aortic lesions.
