Abstract

Although unusual in adults, coarctation of the aorta can be an occult cause of dilated cardiomyopathy. This report describes a case of 45 year-old man with an unknown congenital coarctation of the aorta, who presented in a clinical condition with advanced cardiomyopathy and heart failure requiring cardiac transplantation. The diagnostic examinations and treatment of coarcation of the aorta is discussed and the importance of physical examination is emphasized
