To define the safety and efficacy of operation for recurrent thoracic
aortic coarctation, we reviewed the hospital records and subsequent courses
of 53 patients who underwent such procedures over a 23-year period.
Previous operations included end-to-end anastomosis, prosthetic patch or
subclavian flap aortoplasty, and prosthetic interposition or bypass grafts,
performed in patients ranging from 1 day to 44 years old. Several different
reoperative procedures were used, including an ascending-descending aortic
bypass graft in 4 patients who had had two previous repairs. There were no
hospital or late deaths and only 3 relatively minor complications. Only 2
patients have hypertension requiring drug therapy at follow-up, which now
averages 7 years. We conclude that operative management of severe,
recurrent coarctation is both safe and effective, and that several
techniques of reconstruction may have a place in such therapy.
