Abstract

The coarctation of aorta, which is the principal congenital heart disease, made heart insufficiency in children and young adults. Bicuspid aortic valve and coarctation of aorta are frequently seen together. It is believed that these malformations result from a single developmental diathesis. In present case, 15 years- old boy with chest pain and dispnea was admitted to Department of Cardiology, Sani Konukoğlu Medical Center. Aortography was showed that aortic valve was bicuspid and there was coarctation on descendens aorta. For this case, the literature was examined and the pathological peculiarity of the bicuspid aorta and coarctation of aorta was discussed.
