Abstract

Coarctation of the aorta (AC) is a common stenosis of the aortic arc. It may either be encountered during the infantile period or adulthood. Early diagnosis and treatment is important because it may be associated with a higher incidence of complications unless it is treated surgically until the age of 30 years. Radiologie investigations, in particular threedimensional magnetic resonance (MR) angiography provide valuable information. This article reports a 28yearold male patient together with findings of chest radiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and three-dimensional MR angiography.

Özet

Aort koarktasyonu, aort arkında doğuştan ortaya çıkan darlıktır. Bebeklik ve yetişkin döneminde görülen iki tipi vardır. Otuz yaşına kadar tedavi edilmeyen olgularda komplikasyon sıklığı yükseldiği için, erken tanı ve tedavi önem kazanmaktadır. Üç boyutlu manyetik rezonans (MR) anjiyografi başta olmak üzere, radyolojik yöntemler tanıda oldukça değerli bilgiler vermektedir. Bu yazıda, aort koarktasyonu saptanan 28 yaşındaki erkek hastada önarka akciğer grafisi, bilgisayarlı tomografi, manyetik rezonans görüntüleme ve üç boyutlu MR anjiyografi bulguları sunuldu.
