The mechanism and therapy of aortic aneurysms
Aortic aneurysm is a chronic aortic disease affected by many factors. Although it is generally asymptomatic, it poses a significant threat to human life due to a high risk of rupture.

Cellular Mechanisms of Aortic Aneurysm Formation.
Aortic aneurysms are a common vascular disease in Western populations that can involve virtually any portion of the aorta. Abdominal aortic aneurysms are much more common than thoracic aortic aneurysms and combined they account for >25 000 deaths in the ...

MULTIDETECTOR COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY FOR IDENTIFICATION OF INSTABILITY OF AORTIC ANEURYSM WALL
Background: Aortic aneurysm is characterized by high incidence, polymorphic clinical features and sudden onset of severe complications.Aim: To develop a standard multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) protocol for aortic aneurysm examination and image ...

Open versus Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.
BACKGROUND Elective endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm results in lower perioperative mortality than traditional open repair, but after 4 years this survival advantage is not seen; in addition, results of two European trials have shown ...

Causal factors in the development of thoracic aortic aneurysm
Aim. To assess the causal factors in the development of thoracic aortic aneurysm. Despite the existing screening programmes, widely used visualisation methods, and improved intervention techniques, aortic aneurysm remains one of the leading causes of ...

An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a localized dilatation of the infrarenal aorta. AAA is a multifactorial disease, and genetic and environmental factors play a part; smoking, male sex and a positive family history are the most important risk factors, and AAA is most common in men >65 years of age.

Extracellular matrix, regional heterogeneity of the aorta, and aortic aneurysm
Aortic aneurysm is an asymptomatic disease with dire outcomes if undiagnosed. Aortic aneurysm rupture is a significant cause of death worldwide. To date, surgical repair or endovascular repair (EVAR) is the only effective treatment for aortic aneurysm ...
