Is Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Behavior after Endovascular Repair Associated with Aneurysm Wall Density on Computed Tomography Angiography?

Medicina, 2019
Background and objectives: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) growth is unpredictable after the endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). Continuing aortic wall degradation and weakening due to hypoxia may have a role in post-EVAR aneurysm sac growth.

Inflammation, Immunity, and Cardiovascular Diseases

Med Research, EarlyView.
Cardiovascular stress signals (e.g., hemodynamic shear, oxidized lipids, and ischemia) act on endothelial and immune cells to activate and amplify inflammation through NF‐κB, the NLRP3 inflammasome, and JAK/STAT signaling, inducing proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines (IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, and CCL2) and self‐amplifying circuits; clinically, inflammatory

Rare Complication of non-Treated Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm: Extensive Thrombus in Right Cardiac Chambers

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia
A 78-year-old patient presented with shortness of breath after falling down. Transthoracic echocardiogram showed an extensive thrombus in the right atrium (RA), extensive thrombosis of the inferior vena cava (IVC), and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).

Training in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Repair: 1987–1997

European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 1999
in the U.K. a decrease in working hours has led to shortening of surgical training. Operative experience must, therefore, be gained more quickly. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of these changes in relation to outcome following abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair; a vascular "indicator" operation as defined by the U.K. Royal Colleges.

Thrombospondin‐4 is upregulated in abdominal aortic aneurysm: A vasoprotective response with potential therapeutic relevance

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
TSP4 is upregulated in human and experimental AAA. TSP4 knockdown accelerated AAA formation and exacerbated both vascular inflammation and remodelling, emphasizing that TSP4 upregulation may represent a protective response against AAA. Our findings suggest that preserving TSP4 could be a useful strategy in the clinical management of AAA.

Atypical Presentation of a Type 2 Endoleak following Emergency Open Repair of a Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

EJVES Short Reports, 2016
: Background: An endoleak is a common complication following EVAR. Specifically, a Type 2 endoleak occurs because of retrograde flow from lumbar vessels outside the endograft within the aneurysm sac.

Recurrent Suprarenal Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm(AAA) after Repair Infrarenal AAA.

Japanese Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 1997
72歳女性の腎動脈下腹部大動脈瘤術後5年目に腎動脈上, 横隔膜下に及ぶ腹部大動脈瘤を認め, 手術を施行した. Stoney の方法に準じ, 開胸腹膜外到達法を用い, 大動脈に到達した. 補助手段として, 下大静脈脱血, 大腿動脈送血の Biopump, 人工肺を用いたV-Aバイパスを造設し, 大動脈遮断中, 腹腔動脈, 上腸間膜動脈, 左右腎動脈に循環カテーテルを用いて灌流を行った. 術直後は軽度の腎機能障害, 肝機能障害が出現したが, 第20病日, 大動脈造影で再建分枝の開存を確認し, 退院した. 本例のような虚血性心疾患を合併した再手術例では, V-Aバイパス補助下の手術が臓器保護, 循環動態の安定に推奨されると思われた.

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Evaluation of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA)

European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2002
aneurysmal disease is associated with an inflammatory cell infiltrate and enzymatic degradation of the vessel wall.to detect increased metabolic activity in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) by means of positron emission tomography (PET-imaging).twenty-six patients with AAA underwent PET-imaging.in ten patients, PET-imaging revealed increased fluoro ...
