Coarctation repair in neonates or small infants, using a subclavian patch, has a relatively high risk of restenosis, especially if complicated by the presence of a short subclavian artery or long coarctation segment. We introduce a technical modification that facilitates the use of a subclavian flap, and decreases the restenosis rate in this subgroup of patients. It consists of a side-to-side transverse aortic anastomosis at the level of the coarctation, which widens the coarctation segment, shortens the isthmus, and pulls the distal end of the aortotomy proximally, allowing a tension-free subclavian flap aortoplasty.
