Can you describe coarctation of the aorta?

See below: It is a restriction of the aorta at the level of the ligament near the left arm into the aorta. It will cause high pressure in the arms and low pressure in the legs, with decreased pulse in the legs, leading to congestive heart failure. And at the end, the heart may fail, leading to edema.

Test needed: Corta with stenosis usually onthe arch area bp difference between arms and lower BP in legs diagnosed and treated with tests easly now a days cardiac MRI and aorta mra will be a defenite test.

Narrowing: It is narrowing of the aorta (largest artery in the body). It is classified by severity (size of narrowing and pressure difference across it) as well as location (relative to the head-and-neck vessels).
