Coarctation of the Aorta [PDF]
BMJ, 1956 This report summarises our experience with 16 cases of coarctation of the aorta. Clinical and radiological aspects are briefly reviewed. Theimportance of angiocardiography in demonstrating the site and length of the stenosed aortic segment is indicated. The complications of the untreated condition and the indications for surgery are outlined.

Pathology of the Aorta and Aorta as Homograft [PDF]
Journal 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.

Editorial Coarctation of the aorta [PDF]
Archives 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 ...

α1D-Adrenoceptors are responsible for the high sensitivity and the slow time-course of noradrenaline-mediated contraction in conductance arteries [PDF]
, 2013 The objective of this study was to determine whether the different time-course characteristics of α1-adrenoceptor-mediated contraction in arteries can be related to the subtypes involved.

Biomechanical and biochemical properties of the thoracic aorta in warmblood horses, Friesian horses, and Friesians with aortic rupture [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Thoracic aortic rupture and aortopulmonary fistulation are rare conditions in horses. It mainly affects Friesian horses. Intrinsic differences in biomechanical properties of the aortic wall might predispose this breed.

Propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging of aortic dissection in mice : from individual elastic lamella to 3D analysis [PDF]
, 2018 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-
