| Core Tip |
Patients with coarctation of the aorta are at risk for a variety of short- and long-term complications after surgical repair. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a peptide hormone known to cause both cardiac myocyte hypertrophy and vasoconstriction that has been linked to late ventricular hypertrophy in this population. Peri-operative endothelin concentration in this population has not been previously defined. We demonstrate that neonates with coarctation of the aorta have high pre-operative ET-1 levels that decrease post-operatively. Older coarctation patients have more modest ET-1 activation that is unchanged post-operatively. These findings suggest two distinct patterns of ET-1 activation within this population. |
