Study 1: Early repair of aortic coarctation seems to preserve postcoarctation arterial wall structure, but seems to have only limited effect on precoarctation vessel walls. According to recent research from the Netherlands, "In patients, after repair of aortic coarctation, abnormal function of the proximal pre-coarctation arterial conduits has been demonstrated, but data on arterial wall structure of proximal and distal arteries in patients are scarce.
