Procedural results and acute complications in stenting native and recurrent coarctation of the aorta in patients over 4 years of age: A multi‐institutional study

Stent placement for coarctation of aorta is an effective treatment option, though it remains a technically challenging procedure. Technical and aortic complications have decreased over the past 3 years due to, in part, improvement in balloon and stent design. Improvement in our ability to assess aortic wall compliance is essential prior to placement of ISs in older patients with coarctation of the aorta.
