Abstract
Williams–Beuren syndrome (WBS), a genetic disease involving the elastin gene, is characterized by elfin face and mental and growth retardation. Cardiovascular involvement primarily comprises supravalvular aortic stenosis and peripheral pulmonary stenosis. Neonates with WBS are commonly asymptomatic, although a few articles report with the presence of aortic coarctation (COA). We sought to determine the frequency and the clinical profile of infants with WBS and COA.
