  • Abstract
    In conclusion, our experience suggests that PBA of coarctation of the aorta is a feasible and safe procedure for both native and repaired coarctationin adults. However, some patients may have unsuitable morphology and should not be subjected to PBA. The results are effective in the medium term and may obviate the need for surgery in a large number of patients. The procedure should be routinely considered in adults with this condition, but long-term follow-up remains essential.
