A narrowing or stricture of the aorta, often referred to as aortic stenosis or coarctation of the aorta, is a condition where the aorta is abnormally constricted, leading to restricted blood flow. This can result in increased blood pressure before the narrowed area and decreased blood flow to the body beyond the constriction. Symptoms may include hypertension, chest pain, and in severe cases, heart failure. Treatment usually involves surgical intervention or balloon angioplasty to restore normal blood flow.
