Immediate results of the еndovascular aneurysm repair in abdominal aortic aneurysm patients with an unfavorable proximal neck [PDF]
More than half of the interventions for abdominal aortic aneurysm are performed using endovascular techniques. However, due to the anatomical characteristics of the aorta about 40 % of patients cannot be candidates for еndovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR).

Use of perioperative ureteral stent in abdominal aortic aneurysm with retroperitoneal fibrosis - A report of two cases - [PDF]
Retroperitoneal fibrosis is associated with fibroblast proliferation due to inflammatory changes in adipose/fibrous tissue. Given that aortic dilation in abdominal aortic aneurysm can cause compression of the ureter, abdominal aortic aneurysm complicated

Management of abdominal aortic aneurysm
Abstract A series of 245 patients was operated upon for abdominal aortic aneurysm during the years 1969–77, of whom 162 were elective cases while in 83 the aneurysm was leaking or had ruptrued. The hospital mortality for the latter group fell from 77 per cent at the beginning of the study period to 30 per cent at the end.

Biomechanics of abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a condition whereby the terminal aorta permanently dilates to dangerous proportions, risking rupture. The biomechanics of AAA has been studied with great interest since aneurysm rupture is a mechanical failure of the degenerated aortic wall and is a significant cause of death in developed countries.

Macrophage ILF3 promotes abdominal aortic aneurysm by inducing inflammatory imbalance in male mice
Imbalance of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses plays a crucial role in the progression of abdominal aortic aneurysms. ILF3, a known modulator of the innate immune response, is involved in cardiovascular diseases.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm in the elderly
Abstract Thirty-five patients over the age of 80 years underwent surgery for abdominal aortic aneurysm between January 1985 and December 1990. Of these, 25 had surgery for ruptured aneurysm (mortality rate 56 per cent) and ten had surgery for symptomatic or asymptomatic aneurysm (mortality rate zero). The mortality rate for patients with

Correção de aneurisma de aorta abdominal em paciente com dois rins pélvicos
Abdominal aortic aneurysm reconstruction is usually performed in vascular surgical practice. However, the repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with a pelvic kidney is rare. Our goal is to present a case report of an abdominal aortic aneurysm
