ABSTRACT
Aortic coarctation was diagnosed in a 27-year-old man with Klippel-Feil syndrome, an inborn skeletal defect of the vertebral column associated with anomalies of various organs. The presented findings are discussed in the context to the theory of vascular artery supply disruption sequence during embryogenisis as a potential explanation for the pathogenesis of morphological defects of Klippel-Feil and associated syndromes.
