Atresia of aorta - what does this mean
Atresia of the aorta is a congenital heart defect in which the aorta, the main blood vessel that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of the body, is narrowed or completely blocked. this can cause a decrease in oxygenated blood flow, leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and poor growth.
What happens during the disease - atresia of aorta
Atresia of the aorta is a congenital defect wherein the aorta is abnormally narrow or completely closed off. this defect is usually caused by an abnormal development of the aortic wall during fetal growth, leading to a lack of blood flow to the lower body. in some cases, the condition is caused by a defect in the development of the aortic valve, which prevents the normal flow of blood. in either case, the lack of blood flow can lead to serious complications, including organ damage, growth delays, and even death.
