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]

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]

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]
