Born at 28 weeks gestation, Kaylin had critical aortic valve stenosis and critical coarctation of the aorta, two areas of narrowing on the left side of the heart which forced it to work too hard to deliver blood throughout the body. Without intervention, she would die – but the procedure she needed had never been performed on a baby so small. Using a minimally-invasive cardiac catheterization procedure, physicians at Texas Children's Cardiac Catheterization Lab were able to fix Kaylin’s heart. She is now a vibrant and active 9-year-old with a bright future.
