Abstract
The surgical treatment of recurrent coarctation in adults supposes a redo left thoracotomy with adhesions and high risk of bleeding and injury of adjacent nerves. The rate of paraplegia in these cases may reach 2.6%. Extra-anatomic aortic bypass avoids these complications. We present our results with ascending-to-abdominal aorta extra-anatomic bypass for recurrent aortic coarctation in adults.
