Pathology of the Aorta and Aorta as Homograft [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
The aorta is not a rigid tube, it is an “organ” with lamellar units, consisting of elastic fibers, extracellular matrix and smooth muscle cells in between as parenchyma. Several diseases may occur in the natural history of the aorta, requiring replacement of both semilunar cusps and ascending aorta.

Mathematical modeling of shear-activated targeted nanoparticle drug delivery for the treatment of aortic diseases [PDF]

open access: yesBiomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology (2021), 2021
The human aorta is a high-risk area for vascular diseases, which are commonly restored by thoracic endovascular aortic repair. In this paper, we report a promising shear-activated targeted nanoparticle drug delivery strategy to assist in the treatment of coarctation of the aorta and aortic aneurysm.

The impact of circulatory arrest with selective antegrade cerebral perfusion on brain functional connectivity and postoperative cognitive function

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Aortic surgery is one of the most challenging types of surgeries, which is possibly related to cognitive sequelae. We aimed to investigate the changes in resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) associated with intraoperative circulatory arrest (CA ...

Hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during thoracic endovascular aortic repair [PDF]

open access: yesBiomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology (2022), 2021
Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become the standard treatment of a variety of aortic pathologies. The objective of this study is to evaluate the hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during TEVAR. Three idealized representative diseased aortas of aortic aneurysm, coarctation of the aorta, and aortic dissection were ...

Editorial Coarctation of the aorta [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Medical Science, 2012
Ding et al. report in the current number of the AMS [1] a 12 year old patient with abdominal coarctation of the aorta above the renal arteries treated successfully with percutanous transluminal angioplasty. This report is a useful reminder that hypertension maybe the sole manifestation of aortic coarctation that has an estimated incidence of 1 in 2500 ...

THE CONDITION OF DISTAL AORTA AFTER PROXIMAL RECONSTRUCTION FOR DISSECTION IN MARFAN SYNDROME

open access: yesРоссийский кардиологический журнал, 2016
Marfan syndrome is a disease associated with high prevalence of aorta-related morbidity and mortality. Dissections and ruptures of thoracal aorta (ThAo) lead to decreased life duration in persons with Marfan syndrome with mediana at 30 year-old.Aim.

Lipid emulsion-mediated reversal of toxic-dose aminoamide local anesthetic-induced vasodilation in isolated rat aorta [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2013
BackgroundIntravenous lipid emulsion has been used to treat systemic toxicity of local anesthetics. The goals of this in vitro study were to determine the ability of two lipid emulsions (Intralipid® and Lipofundin® MCT/LCT) to reverse toxic dose local ...

Celiac plexus chemical neurolysis for refractory pain associated with superior mesenteric artery syndrome

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pain, 2022
Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) syndrome is caused by the compression of a part of the intestine between the aorta and SMA. It may lead to severe epigastric pain that is even refractory to conservative and surgical forms of therapy.
