Familial abdominal aortic aneurysms

Journal of British Surgery, 1977
Abstract The case histories of three brothers, the only siblings of one family, all of whom underwent surgery for the treatment of a previously asymptomatic ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm, are recorded. The possibility of underlying constitutional and hereditary factors is discussed and the suggestion of a primary ...

The Effect of 6 Months of Dietary Counselling on Sleep Outcomes Among Patients With Cardiovascular Diseases: A Randomised Controlled Trial

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep problems are highly prevalent among patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We examined the effect of dietary counselling on sleep outcomes among patients with CVD. We performed secondary analyses within a previously conducted six‐month randomised controlled trial among patients with CVD.

Repair of a juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm in a patient with situs inversus totalis using a retroperitoneal approach

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2016
Situs inversus totalis (SIT) is a rare condition characterized by the mirror image location of all of the thoracic and abdominal organs. There are only a handful of reports documenting the presence and repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm in the ...

Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms

Journal of British Surgery, 1978
Abstract The results of operation in 76 patients with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm are presented with an analysis of the cause of operative death. Overall mortality was 58 per cent and preoperative hypotension significantly increased mortality; deterioration while awaiting operation made a successful outcome particularly unlikely.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

First‐time red blood cell transfusions in the emergency department: A deficiency in micronutrient testing

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To evaluate laboratory investigations for micronutrient deficiencies as the cause of anaemia prior to first‐time red blood cell transfusions in the medical emergency department (ED) of a large academic hospital. Background The ED is often the first point of contact for acutely ill anaemic patients, yet patient blood management ...

The clinical and physiological profiles of kissing stents in endovascular reconstruction of aortoiliac occlusive disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aortoiliac occlusive disease affecting the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries is conventionally treated with open surgical repair and is the mainstay of treatment. Endovascular techniques have become a less invasive alternative, especially for high‐risk patients.

Computational analysis to assess hemodynamic forces in descending thoracic aortic aneurysms

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Left: Pre‐processing. First, we perform the segmentation of the Computer Tomography angiorgraphy (angio‐CT) scans of a healthy patient, obtaining the surface of a healthy thoracic aorta with a Type III aortic arch. Then, we build nine ideal configurations with Descending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm (DTAA), varying the aortic arch ...

A Case of Perforated Peritonitis Caused by the Migration of a Single‐Puncture Gastric Wall Fixation Device Following Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract We report an uncommon case of perforated peritonitis resulting from the migration of a single‐puncture gastric wall fixation device following percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy. An 83‐year‐old male developed acute peritonitis 6 days post‐procedure, requiring emergency surgery.

[Abdominal aortic aneurysm].

Der Internist, 2009
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) confer a substantial healthcare burden in the Western world. Surgical or endovascular therapy is indicated in patients with a maximum diameter exceeding 5.5 cm. Patients with smaller AAA must undergo a specific ultrasound surveillance program aimed at avoiding exposure to an increased risk of rupture once their AAA ...
