Three-dimensional aortic arch geometry and blood flow in neonates after surgical repair for aortic coarctation by Katrin Fricke, Katrin Fricke, Lea Christierson, Lea Christierson, Lea Christierson, Einar Heiberg, Einar Heiberg, Pia Sjöberg, Pia Sjöberg, Erik Hedström, Erik Hedström, Erik Hedström, Erik Hedström, Kristoffer Steiner, Constance G.

“…A smaller angle between the ascending aorta and the brachiocephalic artery (89 [58]° vs. 122 [37]°, p = 0.05) and between the proximal aortic arch and the left carotid artery (75° vs. 97 [37]°, p = 0.04), with a more pronounced caliber change between the ascending aorta and the proximal (1.85 vs. 0.86 [0.76]; p = 0.03) and distal aortic arch (2.19 [2.42] vs. 1.01 [0.94]; p = 0.03) were observed in re-CoA patients. Patients who developed re-CoA had more left-handed helical flow in systole (p = 0.045), more right-handed helical flow in diastole (p = 0.02), and less vortical flow (p = 0.05).ConclusionSubtle changes in aortic arch geometry and flow pattern early after neonatal CoA repair may contribute to the risk of re-CoA.…”
