3D model of coarctation of aorta. There are three types of aortic coarctations: [3] Preductal coarctation: The narrowing is proximal to the ductus arteriosus.Blood flow to the aorta that is distal to the narrowing is dependent on the ductus arteriosus; therefore severe coarctation can be life-threatening.

Coarctation’s a fancy way of saying “narrowing”, so a coarctation of the aorta means a narrowing of the aorta. If we look at the heart, we’ve got the right and left atria, the right and left ventricles, the pulmonary artery leaving the right ventricle to the lungs, and the aorta leaving the left ventricle and going to to the body.
An aortic coarctation is a narrowing of the aorta, which is split into infant and adult forms. In the infant form, it's often accompanied by patent ductus arteriosus, and mixing of deoxygenated and oxygenated blood, whereas in the adult form, the ductus arteriosus has closed off.

Interrupted aortic arch is a very rare heart defect (affecting 3 per million live births) [1] in which the aorta is not completely developed. There is a gap between the ascending and descending thoracic aorta. In a sense it is the complete form of a coarctation of the aorta. Almost all patients also have other cardiac anomalies, including a ...
From ancient history to the modern day, the clitoris has been discredited, dismissed and deleted -- and women's pleasure has often been left out of the conversation entirely. Now, an underground art movement led by artist Sophia Wallace is emerging across the globe to challenge the lies, question the myths and rewrite the rules around sex and the female body.
