- Rationale and design of long-term outcomes and vascular evaluation after successful coarctation of the aorta treatment studyPublication . Martins, Jose D.; Zachariah, Justin; Selamet Tierney, ElifSeda; Truong, Uyen; Morris, Shaine A.; Kutty, Shelby; de Ferranti, Sarah D.; Rhodes, Jonathan; Antonio, Marta; Guarino, Maria Pedro; Thomas, Boban; Oliveira, Diana; Gauvreau, Kimberlee; Jalles, Nuno; Geva, Tal; Carmo, Miguel; Prakash, AshwinCoarctation of the aorta (CoA) can be treated using surgery, balloon angioplasty, or stent implantation. Although short-term results are excellent with all three treatment modalities, long-term cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality remain high, likely due to persistently abnormal vascular function. The effects of treatment modality on long-term vascular function remain uncharacterized. The goal of this study is to assess vascular function in this patient population for comparison among the treatment modalities.
