Myocardial strain pattern progress in patients with Coarctation of the Aorta undergoing aortic stenting.

Background And Aim: Ventricular function evaluation in coarctation of the aorta (CoA) has become more sophisticated and precise with speckle tracking, revealing subclinical changes. However, CoA stenting treatment effects in on myocardial strain are still controversial. This study aimed to estimate the extent to which changes in left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV GLS) occur in patients with CoA who undergo stenting.
