Abstract

We report a 31-year old woman who presented with acute onset of shortness of breath 19 years after multiple repairs of a preductal coarctation of the aorta using a Dacron tube graft. Imaging studies showed an aneurysm had developed in the tube graft. The aneurysmal tube graft was replaced during an open repair. 2010 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons. Published by Elsevier Inc.
