Diastolic Murmur
Physical examination revealed a prominent pulsation in the right side of the neck and an early diastolic murmur, grade 2/6, in the aortic position. Her blood pressure was 134/78 mm Hg in the right arm and 122/72 mm Hg in the left arm. [nejm.org]
Workup
In this case, we discuss the differential diagnosis for a pulsatile neck mass and considerations to be made in the workup. We also highlight the importance of cardiovascular risk factor management in patients with CAA. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment
We report the diagnosis and surgical treatment of an aneurysm on a CAA associated with an anomalous origin of the left main coronary artery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Surgical treatment may be indicated for relief of tracheal and esophageal compression symptoms or for correction of associated vascular defects Cervical Aortic Arch. [learningradiology.com]
Prognosis
Treatment and prognosis Surgical treatment is commonly indicated for the relief of symptoms resulting from compression of the trachea and esophagus, correction of associated intracardiac defects, repair of associated aneurysms and aortic obstruction 2,3 [radiopaedia.org]
From a purely surgical viewpoint, the prognosis for children with Down's syndrome and congenital heart disease is good (5). Down syndrome patients should be screened by echocardiography early. [ispub.com]

Embryology [Print Section] The etiology of interrupted aortic arches can be thought of in terms similar to those that describe the formation of the other arch anomalies discussed above. [quizlet.com]
Epidemiology
The anomalies are organized by anatomical system and presented in a consistent manner, including details of the clinical presentation, epidemiology, embryology, treatment and prevention for each anomaly. [books.google.com]

Pathophysiology: The following pathophysiological changes may occur in CA: LV pressure overload: due to obstruction to aortic flow. [cardiologyforyou.blogspot.com]
The pathophysiology of the interruption is thought to be an absolute decrease in left ventricular output to the ascending aorta (owing to the combination of outflow obstruction and VSD) with maintenance of normal cerebral perfusion, resulting in a P.755 [quizlet.com]
Prevention
Definitive diagnosis with a noninvasive imaging modality is desirable and very important to prevent the need for disaster intervention. We present two cases of a pulsatile mass in the left supraclavicular region. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The anomalies are organized by anatomical system and presented in a consistent manner, including details of the clinical presentation, epidemiology, embryology, treatment and prevention for each anomaly. [books.google.com]
Our principal teaching point once the diagnosis of pseudocoarctation of the aorta is made is these patients must remain under a program of annual surveillance to identify the possible formation of aneurysm, in order to prevent lethal complication as rupture [panafrican-med-journal.com]

In utero, factors that reduce ductal flow & augment aortic flow prevent the development of coarctation, e.g. pulmonary stenosis or atresia, and tetralogy of Fallot. These anomalies therefore, are never associated with coarctation of the aorta. [cardiologyforyou.blogspot.com]
