Echo-guiding percutaneous aortic stent implantation for coarctation of the aortic: A case report / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

@#Currently, transcatheter intervention has emerged as a first-line treatment for coarctation of the aortic. Due to the radiation exposure associated with catheter interventional therapy, there are numerous restrictions, which harms both patients and medical personnel and is dependent on sizable radiation apparatus. Here, we report for the first time a case of echo-guiding percutaneous aortic stent implantation for a 27 years female patient of reproductive age. After discharge, the patient's aortic coarctation pressure decreased to 18 mm Hg, and the surgical results were satisfactory.
