The aim of the work: to analyze and characterize a clinical case of surgical staged treatment of coarctation of the aorta in a female patient with Williams syndrome.
Materials and Methods. A case of successful staged surgical treatment of coarctation of the aorta in a patient with Williams syndrome.
Results. The paper describes a clinical case of the surgical stage of treatment of a rare genetic disease associated with coarctation of the aorta and hypoplasia of the aortic arch. In which, at the first stage, resection of the stenosed segment of coarctation of the aorta with the formation of a primary anastomosis was performed, and subsequently balloon angioplasty of this anastomosis was performed after more than six months - at the second stage with a generally good final result.
Conclusions. The result of balloon angioplasty was considered satisfactory both according to the results of visual observance and clinically.
