Operations were performed on 84 infants for coarctation of the aorta between 1970 and 1987. An analysis was made of the results recorded from 45 of them (1983-1987). The youngest child had been two days of age. Additional cardiac (1983-1987). The youngest child had been two days of age. Additional cardiac defects were recordable from more than 60 per cent, while pulmonary pressures were above 75 in 50 per cent. Different surgical techniques were used and are recommended. The two-stage procedure was preferred in cases of associated intracardiac defects.
