This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Q25.1 - other international versions of ICD-10 Q25.1 may differ. A birth defect characterized by the narrowing of the aorta that can be of varying degree and at any point from the transverse arch to the iliac bifurcation.
Coarctation of aorta. Aortic coarctation causes arterial hypertension before the point of narrowing and arterial hypotension beyond the narrowed portion. Congenital constriction of the aorta just distal to the left subclavian artery; causes upper body hypertension but few other symptoms; may present as headache or dyspnea on exertion.

ICD-10 code Z87. 74 for Personal history of (corrected) congenital malformations of heart and circulatory system is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
Coarctation of the aorta can affect any part of the aorta, but it's most often located near a blood vessel called the ductus arteriosus.
The narrowing, or coarctation, blocks normal blood flow to the body. This can back up flow into the left ventricle of the heart, making the muscles in this ventricle work harder to get blood out of the heart.
ICD-10 code I35. 0 for Nonrheumatic aortic (valve) stenosis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the circulatory system .
Coarctation of the aorta is an abnormal narrowing of the aorta. The aorta is the large blood vessel that exits the heart and supplies the body with oxygen-rich blood. Transcatheter repair is a type of procedure that can treat the abnormal narrowing of the aorta without the need for open heart surgery.
This spectrum is dichotomized by the idea that aortic coarctation occurs in the aortic arch, at or near the ductus arteriosus, whereas aortic stenosis occurs in the aortic root, at or near the aortic valve.
Diagnostic Studies Coarctation of the aorta is usually diagnosed by echocardiogram (ultrasound pictures of the heart). Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging), cardiac CT (computerized tomography scan), and cardiac catheterization angiography also show aortic narrowing.
Causes. The exact cause of coarctation of the aorta is unknown. It results from abnormalities in development of the aorta prior to birth. Aortic coarctation is more common in people with certain genetic disorders, such as Turner syndrome.
Bilateral symmetrical rib notching, readily appreciated on the chest image, is diagnostic of aortic coarctation. It is the result of obstruction of blood flow at the narrowed aortic segment, in conjunction with collateral blood flow through the intercostal arteries.

A normal aortic valve is tricuspid. Five types of bicuspid valve are shown, with Type 1 being most prevalent. A bicuspid valve forms when the tissue surrounding one of the cusps (leaflets) of the valve fuses during fetal development.
The ductus arteriosus is formed from the left 6th aortic arch during embryonic development and attaches to the final part of the aortic arch (the isthmus of aorta) and the first part of the pulmonary artery.
If present, a delay between bilateral radial pulses suggests narrowing of the aorta proximal to the left subclavian artery - classically in the context of coarctation of the aorta.
What Causes Bicuspid Aortic Valve? Bicuspid aortic valve disease (BAV) is caused when the third leaflet of the aortic valve does not develop properly. Two leaflets are stuck together causing the value to open and close abnormally.
The ICD code Q251 is used to code Coarctation of the aorta. Coarctation of the aorta, or aortic narrowing (abbreviated as CoA), is a congenital condition whereby the aorta narrows in the area where the ductus arteriosus (ligamentum arteriosum after regression) inserts.
Coarctations are most common where the aorta—the major artery leading away from the heart—arches toward the abdomen and legs. The aortic arch may be small in babies with coarctations. Other heart defects may also occur when coarctation is present, typically occurring on the left side of the heart.
