An 11-year-old asymptomatic girl with hypertension was found to have coarctation of the abdominal aorta with four aneurysms in or adjacent to the hypoplastic segment of aorta. Operative treatment included insertion of a thoracoabdominal aortic bypass graft and resection of the aneurysms. The association of abdominal coarctation and aneurysm formation is reviewed and the rationale for therapy discussed.
