Secondary aortoesophageal fistula after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for a huge aneurysm
Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, 2013 Thoracic endovascular aortic repair for a descending thoracic aortic aneurysm is an excellent alternative to open surgery, especially in patients with a number of comorbidities.

Gene knockdown of angiopoietin-like protein 3 reduces the occurrence and development of thoracic aortic aneurysms [PDF]
Jichu yixue yu linchuang, 2021 Objective To explore the role of angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) in the development of thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) and its possible mechanism. Methods The TAA patients who underwent open surgical repair in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were selected

Hybrid endovascular operation for ruptured thoracic aortic aneurysm [PDF]
, 2007 The rupture of a thoracic aortic aneurysm is a life-threatening emergency. Conventional open surgical repair carries a high mortality and morbidity. We report an elderly patient who suffered from rupture of a proximal descending thoracic aortic aneurysm ...

Fibulin-4 is essential for maintaining arterial wall integrity in conduit but not muscular arteries [PDF]
, 2017 Homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in fibulin-4 (FBLN4) lead to autosomal recessive cutis laxa type 1B (ARCL1B), a multisystem disorder characterized by significant cardiovascular abnormalities, including abnormal elastin assembly, arterial ...

Thoracic and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]
Circulation, 2005 Aneurysms of the aorta are at times evaluated and treated by physicians from a number of specialties. Indeed, whereas cardiac surgeons operate on the ascending aorta and arch and vascular surgeons manage abdominal aortic aneurysms, at present the responsibility often falls to cardiologists to oversee the medical care of patients with aortic disease of ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs)‐specific deficiency of PP2Acα exacerbates aortic aneurysm and dissection (AAD) by promoting phenotypic switching through AKT1‐mediated phosphorylation and stabilization of Kruppel‐like factor 4 (KLF4). Reduced PP2Acα enhances KLF4 ubiquitination resistance, suppressing VSMC contractile genes and accelerating aortic ...

INFLUENCE OF CARDIOVASCULAR RISK FACTORS ON AORTIC WALL MOTION AFTER REPAIR OF TYPE A AORTIC DISSECTION: AN ECG-GATED CT STUDY [PDF]
, 2012 OBJECTIVES: To evaluate aortic shape changes during cardiac cycle with dynamic computed tomographic angiography at important thoracic aorta anatomic landmarks in patients who previously underwent ascending aorta repair because of type A dissection, and ...

Inhibition of MAPK-Erk pathway in vivo attenuates aortic valve disease processes in Emilin1-deficient mouse model [PDF]
, 2017 Aortic valve disease (AVD) is a common condition with a progressive natural history, and presently, there are no pharmacologic treatment strategies. Elastic fiber fragmentation (EFF) is a hallmark of AVD, and increasing evidence implicates developmental ...

Natural history of thoracic aortic aneurysms [PDF]
Journal of Vascular Surgery, 2012 Understanding the natural history of thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs) is essential to patient care and surgical decision making. In this evidence summary we discuss some of the most clinically relevant features of the disease. The true incidence of TAAs is likely to be higher than currently reported because of the inherently silent nature of TAAs ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Epidemiological data confirm obesity elevates thoracic aortic dissection (TAD) risk. Patient analyses implicate hyperleptinemia, where leptin binding to vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) receptors triggers Socs3‐mediated suppression of Stat5a transcriptional activity.
