Özet

Aortic coarctation is among the congenital heart disease which can easily be diagnosed in infancy and childhood by means of a deliberate physical examination and echocardiography. Children without a prompt diagnosis are represented with several complications that depend on the severity of coarctation. It is of vital importance to perform stent implantation, balloon dilatation or surgical repair as soon as possible after the diagnosis, because severe complications may emerge in aortic coarctation. The present report delineates the case of a six-year old patient who was presented with fever and abdominal pain, and diagnosed with echocardiography to have aortic coarctation.
