Abstract

Aneurysm formation after prosthetic patch repair of coarctation of the aorta was a frequent complication that resulted in abandonment of the procedure. Subclavian flap angioplasty (SFA) was popularized in the 1960s, primarily to prevent late recoarctation.1 However, late aneurysm formation after SFA has been reported in at least 6 cases.2
