Coarctation of the aorta, virtually always a congenital malformation, is characterized by localized aortic narrowing, usually in the arch opposite to the ductus arteriosus and just distal to the left subclavian artery. The condition occasionally goes undiagnosed until adulthood. We report a case of a 55-year-old man who presented with uncontrolled hypertension, pulmonary edema, and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction due to multi-vessel coronary artery disease. He underwent successful simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting and coarctation repair using an ascending-to-descending aortic bypass graft.
