- Murmur can be systolic (flow through coarctation) or continuous (flow through collaterals)
- In contrast, PDA is a continuous "machine-like" murmur heard at the left subclavicular region
- Symptoms are related to either excess blood flow in the upper half of the body (↑ BP, headache, blurred vision, epistaxis, cerebral aneurysms, aortic dissection), or insufficient blood flow in the lower half of the body (↓ BP, underdevelopment, cold legs, claudication with exercise, leg fatigue, delayed femoral pulses)
- The diagnosis of CoA is confirmed by echocardiogram, which visualizes the narrowing and identify other associated defects (e.g. bicuspid aortic valve)
- ECG shows LVH, CXR shows inferior notching and "3" sign
- Alternative treatment option: percutaneous balloon aortoplasty
