Increased Disarray of Extracellular Matrix Collagen‐I Fiber Network and Compromised Biomechanics in Aortae From Marfan‐Syndrome Mice Assessed Through Combined Opto‐Biomechatronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined structure‐function assessment in aortic rings from Marfan mice using MechaMorph Opto‐Biomechatronics technology relates increased elasticity (stiffness) and dynamic viscosity and less ordered extracellular matrix 3D‐structure (collagen) as potential causes for impaired Windkessel function and compromised haemodynamics in Marfan's syndrome ...

COX14 Variants Are Associated With Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Nuclear Type 10 (MC4DN10)

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT COX14 encodes a transmembrane protein essential for cytochrome c oxidase (COX) complex assembly. A homozygous missense variant in COX14 was reported in three siblings from a single consanguineous family with severe, fatal infantile mitochondrial complex IV deficiency nuclear type 10 (MC4DN10; MIM# 619053).

Endovascular Stent Grafting for Aortic Arch Aneurysm in Aortoiliac Occlusive Disease following Aortic Arch Debranching and Aortobifemoral Reconstruction

Case Reports in Medicine, 2017
Treatment of thoracic aortic aneurysms constitutes high mortality and morbidity rates despite improvements in surgery, anesthesia, and technology. Endovascular stent grafting may be an alternative therapy with lower risks when compared with conventional ...

Placement of an aortomonoiliac stent graft without femorofemoral revascularization in endovascular aneurysm repair: a case report [PDF]

, 2011
Introduction: Endovascular aortic repair, if technically feasible, is the treatment of choice for patients with a contained ruptured aortic aneurysm who are unfit for open surgery. Case presentation: We report the case of an 80-year-old Caucasian man who

Feasibility and Procedural Considerations of Balloon‐Expandable TAVR in Patients With Prior Endovascular Aortic Stent Grafts

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the feasibility and short‐term outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using balloon‐expandable Sapien valves in patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts. Methods We conducted a single‐center, retrospective study of 23 patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts who underwent TAVR ...
