Overview
Aortic coarctation was first described as early as 1760. In the 1900s Bonnett and Johnson further classified the anatomical variants associated with aortic coarctation.
Historical perspective
1760
- Johann Friederich Meckel, Prussian anatomist, introduced the description of coarctation of aorta in 1760.
1903
- In 1903, Bonnett was the first in classify the aortic coarctation into infantile type (diffuse narrowing of the aorta in the region proximal to the ductus arteriousus) and adult type or more abrupt constriction of the aorta just distal to the origin of the left subclavian artery, close to the ductus insertion.
1951
- In 1951, Johnson et al, classified the coarctation based upon the position of the ductus arteriousus and its relation to the coarctation as preductal aortic coarctation and postductal aortic coarctation.
