    Journal: J Cardiovasc Med (Hagerstown); 2009 Jun; 10(6):497-8. PubMed ID: 19359996.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 3-day-old male baby, weighing 1.6 kg with severe aortic coarctation and associated cardiac anomalies and extracardiac defects. We adopted an extra-anatomical conduit running from the left carotid artery to the descending aorta after laceration of the distal aortic arch due to extreme tissue fragility and baby immaturity.
