  • Title: Co-existence of severe coarctation of the aorta and aortic valve stenosis in a 65-year-old woman: a case report.
    Author: Onohara D, Sato A, Tasaki Y, Yamada T.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 2014; 20 Suppl():750-3. PubMed ID: 24492168.
    Abstract:
    Coarctation of the aorta is usually diagnosed and corrected early in life. Survival to more than 60 years of age of a patient with unrepaired coarctation of the aorta is extremely unusual, and the optimal management strategies for such patients are controversial. We describe the case of a woman who was first diagnosed as having coarctation of the aorta and aortic valve stenosis at the age of 65 years and underwent successful aortic valve replacement.
