Indian Journal of Pathology & Microbiology. 2004 Apr; 47(2): 274-7http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/75566Infrarenal aortic coarctation is a very uncommon vascular disease. It has been named as hypoplasia of abdominal aorta, mid aortic dysplasia, mid aortic syndrome, atrophy of aorta, atresia of the terminal aorta & atypical coarctation. The pathogenesis is still controversial. Hypertension is an almost universal feature of this disorder. We present a case report with postmortem findings of a young female patient having hypoplasia of abdominal aorta for its rarity.engAdultAorta, Abdominal --pathologyAortic Coarctation --complicationsFemaleHumansHypertension --etiologyCase Reports
