1 Fig. 6. Coarctation of aorta in 46-year-old female with hypertension and dyspnea on exertion.Plain radiograph of chest (A) shows left ventricular hypertrophy, small contour of aortic arch (arrowheads), and mild notching of a few ribs (arrows). Volume-rendered CT image (B) reveals postductal type of aortic coarctation (arrowheads), with well-developed collaterals via internal mammary and intercostal arteries (arrows). Reformatted image of valve (C) shows bicuspid aortic valve (arrows), one of well-known anomalies associated with coarctation of aorta. Patient underwent corrective surgery (Bentall operation) with subsequent normalization of blood pressure.
