Congenital Heart Defects (CHDs) are structural problems in the heart present from birth, affecting how blood flows through the heart and body. One such condition is Coarctation of the Aorta, where a narrowing of the aorta restricts blood flow, leading to increased pressure on the heart and reduced circulation to the lower body. Early diagnosis is crucial, as untreated cases can result in serious complications like hypertension or heart failure.
Symptoms may include difficulty breathing, poor feeding in infants, or high blood pressure in older children. Advanced imaging and timely intervention play a key role in successful treatment outcomes
