Aneurysm of the Abdominal Aorta [PDF]
A 76-year-old man was admitted to the intensive care unit with unstable angina pectoris of Braunwald class IIIB. He was known to have hypertension, which was poorly controlled with medication. Physical examination revealed a pulsating mass in the lower abdomen that was suggestive of an aortic aneurysm. An echocardiographic study with a small, hand-held

COARCTATION OF THE ABDOMINAL AORTA [PDF]
Two cases of coarctation of the abdominal aorta are reported to illustrate the salient diagnostic points and the improvement following surgery.Coarctation of the low thoracic or abdominal aorta must be considered strongly in young female patients who have upper extremity hypertension, strong upper abdominal aortic pulse which disappears distally or no ...

BACKGROUND: Early detection of aortic aneurysms is challenging in hypertensive patients due to the high risk of life-threatening ruptures. Limited studies on the relationship between coronary artery calcium and aortic diameter are present.

Propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging of aortic dissection in mice : from individual elastic lamella to 3D analysis [PDF]
In order to show the advantage and potential of propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging in vascular pathology research, we analyzed aortic medial ruptures in BAPN/AngII-infused mice, a mouse model for aortic dissection. Ascending and thoraco-

Evolution of the wall shear stresses during the progressive enlargement of symmetric abdominal aortic aneurysms. [PDF]
The changes in the evolution of the spatial and temporal distribution of the wall shear stresses (WSS) and gradients of wall shear stresses (GWSS) at different stages of the enlargement of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are important in understanding

Analysis of the molecular mobility of collagen and elastin in safe, atheromatous and aneurysmal aortas [PDF]
Aim of the study : In this study, we propose to use a thermal technique, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) to follow the evolution of elastin and collagen in safe and pathological cardiovascular tissues.

TGFβ (transforming growth factor-β) blockade induces a human-like disease in a nondissecting mouse model of abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]
Objective-Current experimental models of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) do not accurately reproduce the major features of human AAA. We hypothesized that blockade of TGF beta (transforming growth factor-beta) activity-a guardian of vascular integrity ...
