Risk Factors for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm in Population-Based Studies: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2018
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) represents an important public health problem with a prevalence between 1.3% and 12.5%. Several population-based randomized trials have evaluated ultrasound screening for AAA providing evidence of a reduction in aneurysm ...

H19 Induces Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development and Progression

Circulation, 2018
Background: Long noncoding RNAs have emerged as critical molecular regulators in various biological processes and diseases. Here we sought to identify and functionally characterize long noncoding RNAs as potential mediators in abdominal aortic aneurysm ...

The Cattell-Braasch maneuver might be a good option for a huge abdominal aortic aneurysm

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Endovascular repair is often difficult in the case of a huge abdominal aortic aneurysm for anatomic reasons. Here, we describe open repair of a huge infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Chronic contained posterior rupture of large abdominal aortic aneurysm missed on pre-operative CT imaging

Annals of Vascular Surgery - Brief Reports and Innovations, 2022
Objectives We discuss the case of a 9.0 cm chronic contained ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm in a stable 60 year-old male presenting in the ambulatory setting, which was identified intraoperatively after being missed on pre-surgical imaging.

Combined AFX2 with thoracic stent graft: A different endovascular approach of an abdominal aorta aneurysm

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023
The AFX2 endovascular repair system is a unibody, bifurcated stent graft that can be used in an abdominal aortic aneurysm associated with anatomical challenges, especially if it is combined with different aortic cuffs.

Endovascular repair for abdominal aortic aneurysm in a kidney transplant recipient

Radiology Case Reports, 2020
Surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysm in patients with a transplanted kidney is true a challenge. Conventional open repair of the aneurysm requires aortic cross-clamping.

A 60-year-old woman with asymptomatic total thoracic–abdominal aortic aneurysm

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2021
Introduction Total thoracic–abdominal aortic aneurysm is a rare disease in cardiovascular surgery, with high surgical risk and high mortality. Surgery is considered the most effective treatment for total aortic aneurysms.

Macrophage-derived netrin-1 promotes abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by activating MMP3 in vascular smooth muscle cells

Nature Communications, 2018
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are characterized by extensive extracellular matrix (ECM) fragmentation and inflammation. However, the mechanisms by which these events are coupled thereby fueling focal vascular damage are undefined.

Comparative clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of endovascular strategy v open repair for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm: three year results of the IMPROVE randomised trial

British medical journal, 2017
Objective To assess the three year clinical outcomes and cost effectiveness of a strategy of endovascular repair (if aortic morphology is suitable, open repair if not) versus open repair for patients with suspected ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm ...
