Koroner Angiografi İşlemi Esnasında Tesadüfen Saptanan Ciddi Aort Koarktasyonu

Konjenital kalp hastalıkları içerisinde % 5-8 oranında sıklığa sahip aort koarktasyonuna biküspit aort kapağı sıklıkla eşlik etmektedir. Aort koarktasyonu tipik olarak çocukluk ve erken erişkin döneminin hastalığıdır ve onarım yapılmazsa yaşam süresi azalır. Onarım yapılmayan hastalarda ölüm; sıklıkla kalp yetersizliği, koroner arter hastalığı, aort rüptürü/ diseksiyonu, enfektif endokardit/ endarterit veya serebral hemorajiye bağlıdır. Bu yazıda, 60 yaşında çıkan aort anevrizması, aort koarktasyonu ve biküspid aort kapağı olan kararsız angina pektoris ile acil servise gelen hasta takdim edilmiştir

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Aort koarktasyonu; hipertansiyon; kararsız angina pektoris

Koroner Angiografi İşlemi Esnasında Tesadüfen Saptanan Ciddi Aort Koarktasyonu

Aortic coarctation (AC) represents about 5-8 % of all congenital cardiac diseases and a combination with other bicuspid aortic valve is commonly seen. AC is typically a disease of childhood and early adulthood, reducing life expectancy in patients who have not undergone correction. Death in patients who do not undergo repair is usually due to heart failure, coronary artery disease, aortic rupture/ dissection, infective endocarditis/ endarteritis or cerebral hemorrhage. In this report, a 60-year-old patient administered to our emergency department due to unstable angina pectoris with asymptomatic aneurysm of the ascending aorta, AC and a bicuspid aortic valve is presented
