ABSTRACT
Simple coarctation of the aorta is repaired in an infant by direct end-to-end anastomosis of the aorta or subclavian flap aortoplasty. However, some cases are not detected until late childhood. For school-age patients, greater consideration must be given to risks such as postoperative limb ischemia and the potentially harmful effects of any artificial material on future growth. Here, we describe our technique for these patients, in whom the value of direct anastomosis is uncertain, to minimize the amount of synthetic graft material used while achieving successful anatomical repair.
