3.3 ASSESSMENT OF AORTIC MORPHOLOGY IN A BICUSPID AORTIC VALVE POPULATION
Background: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a congenital heart disease associated with aortic wall abnormalities and co-existing with other congenital defects (e.g. aortic coarctation). This study aimed to explore aortic shape features in a BAV population,

MODERN VIEWS ON THE GENE NOTCH1 MUTATIONS ROLE FOR AORTIC COARCTATION
Aim. By the observation of aortic coarctation victims families, to reveal factors predisposing to the disease development, and to evaluate the prevalence of NOTCH1 genes mutation/replacements in patients with this kind of defect.

Towards a Computational Framework for Modeling the Impact of Aortic Coarctations upon Left Ventricular Load [PDF]
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models of blood flow in the left ventricle (LV) and aorta are important tools for analyzing the mechanistic links between myocardial deformation and flow patterns. Typically, the use of image-based kinematic CFD models prevails in applications such as predicting the acute response to interventions which alter LV ...

Emergency rescue stent grafting for a ruptured degenerated graft that bypassed coarctation of the aorta: a case report [PDF]
A 33-year-old man who had undergone bypass from the distal aortic arch to the proximal descending thoracic aorta with a Dacron graft to treat coarctation of the aorta 20 years prior presented to the emergency department with massive hemoptysis.

Coarctation of Aorta is not rare in general population. Aortic Coarctation represents about 5–8% of all congenital cardiac diseases, and it is commonly associated with bicuspid aortic valve.

Two stage hybrid approach for complex aortic coarctation repair
Background Management of an adult patient with aortic coarctation and an associated cardiac pathology poses a great surgical challenge since there are no standard guidelines for the therapy of such complex pathology.

Impact of Turbulence Modeling on the Simulation of Blood Flow in Aortic Coarctation [PDF]
Numerical simulations of pulsatile blood flow in an aortic coarctation require the use of turbulence modeling. This paper considers three models from the class of large eddy simulation (LES) models (Smagorinsky, Vreman, $\boldsymbol{\sigma}$-model) and one model from the class of variational multiscale models (residual-based) within a finite element ...

Aortic coarctation is one of the most frequent congenital heart defects; the frequency is in the range of 6-7%. Aortic coarctation is often associated with other heart defects, namely: a bicuspid aortic valve, an interventricular septal defect, and ...
