Noninvasive versus invasive evaluation of the extracranial circulation in patients with suspected cerebral vascular disease.

abstract：:The authors present a case of adult aortic coarctation with two associated intercostal aneurysms and poor left ventricular function. The intercostal aneurysms appear, radiographically, as a subclavian aneurysm. The case illustrates, in aortic coarctation, the potential difficulty in defining the anatomy of the associa...
