Aortic valve repair for quadricuspid aortic valve associated with aortic regurgitation and ascending aortic aneurysm [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2004
Quadricuspid aortic valve is a rare congenital anomaly. Most cases have been discovered as an incidental finding at aortic valve surgery or at autopsy. With advances in echocardiography, more cases now being discovered preoperatively. Valvular insufficiency is the most frequent hemodynamic abnormality in patients with a quadricuspid aortic valve.

Extracellular matrix composition and remodeling in human abdominal aortic aneurysms: a proteomics approach. [PDF]

, 2011
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are characterized by pathological remodeling of the aortic extracellular matrix (ECM). However, besides the well-characterized elastolysis and collagenolysis little is known about changes in other ECM proteins.
