Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Even after excellent repair of aortic coarctation without restenosis there are limitations in exercise capacity at long-term follow-up. This study was performed to assess the contribution of inherited genomic polymorphisms to exercise capacity in patients without restenosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 122 patients aged 17-72 years, 46 female, 76 male, seen 2-27 years after repair of aortic coarctation with...
