A Case Report of Rapid Progressive Coarctation and Severe Middle Aortic Syndrome in an Infant with Williams Syndrome
Congenital Heart Disease, 09/15/09

Hall EK et al. – Williams syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by multiple contiguous gene deletions in chromosome 7. Presentation in early life is most often a result of luminal stenosis of right– and left–sided arterial vasculature. The authors report the case of a newborn infant who had a rapidly progressing diffuse form of arteriopathy that required two surgeries and one percutaneous balloon dilation within the first 2 months of her life.
