Crouzon syndrome is also associated with PDA( patent ductus arteriosus) and aortic coarctation.

Journal of Human Hypertension 25, 739-745 Masked hypertension in young patients after successful aortic coarctation repair: impact on left ventricular geometry and function.

That said, TIAs can result from emboli in calcific aortic disease and aortic coarctation.

His father, Dr. J.F. Pettigrew, was the first Canadian surgeon to diagnose the heart condition known as aortic coarctation in 1953.

Decreased blood pressure in the legs or delayed or absent femoral arterial pulses may indicate aortic coarctation (a narrowing of the aorta shortly after it leaves the heart).
