A 2-month-old female infant was born with coarctation of the aorta, a narrowing in a part of the aorta, was transferred to this hospital for admission one day after her birth. The narrowing of the aorta forces the heart to pump harder to push blood through the narrowed part and causes many consequences that can be life-threatening including heart failure. The infant was brought to the operating room for excisional repair of the coarctation of the thoracic aorta. The surgeon removed the narrowed portion of the descending thoracic aorta and created an end-to-end anastomosis between the two remaining portions. The procedure was done with the pump oxygenator for circulatory support. Princlpal Diagnosis: Secondary Diagnoses: Princlpal Diagnosis: Secondary Procedure(s):
