Adult Coarctation of Aorta with Bicuspid Aortic Valve.

ABSTRACT

Coarctation of the aorta is a congenital cardiac malformation that can go undiagnosed with only hypertension as a marker of its presence, because clinical signs can be subtle and overlooked if a complete physical examination is not performed. Here we present a case report of 20 year old young male patient with hypertension who was diagnosed to have Coarctation of Aorta and Bicuspid aortic Valve.Our patient was relatively asymptomatic until he presented with headache and exertional dyspnoea.
