Status of branched endovascular aortic arch repair.

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018
Multiple medical device manufacturers are developing branched endografts for thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR), to provide a minimally invasive alternative for the treatment of aortic arch pathologies in patients who are deemed unfit for open ...

Contribution of Gli1+ Adventitial Stem Cells to Smooth Muscle Cells in Atherosclerosis and Vascular Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Gli1+ adventitial stem cells (ASCs) have been thought to generate smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerosis. Using a dual‐recombinase lineage tracing to exclude ectopic labeling, Wang et al. found that Gli1+ ASCs do not contribute to SMCs in atherosclerotic plaques.

Critical transitions in early embryonic aortic arch patterning and hemodynamics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Transformation from the bilaterally symmetric embryonic aortic arches to the mature great vessels is a complex morphogenetic process, requiring both vasculogenic and angiogenic mechanisms.

Aortic Arch Anomalies

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2006
Magnetic resonance imaging has become the gold standard for imaging the aortic arch with the ability to demonstrate not only the arterial branching pattern, but also the relationship of aorta and its branches to the trachea and bronchi. Examples of four major aortic arch types--left aortic arch, right aortic arch, double aortic arch and persistent ...

In Situ Lipoprotein‐seeking Dye for in Vivo Real‐Time Imaging of Lipid Dysregulation Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops lipoprotein‐seeking NIR‐II dyes that specifically bind circulating lipoproteins. These dyes form ultra‐stable complexes with endogenous lipoprotein, enabling real‐time, high‐contrast imaging of fatty liver and atherosclerotic plaques. Tunable binding kinetics allow customized imaging windows.

Atherosclerotic disruption of the aortic arch during coronary artery bypass operation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A 70-year-old-man presented with a symptomatic three vessel coronary artery disease and was scheduled for myocardial revascularization. During extracorporeal circulation an intrathoracal bleeding occurred and aortic rupture was suspected.

Long-term results of simplified frozen elephant trunk technique in complicated acute type A aortic dissection: A case–control study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aim: To describe the long-term experience of a simplified frozen elephant trunk technique (sFETT) used in complicated acute type A aortic dissection (AAAD) treatment. Methods and results: Between January 2001 and December 2012, 34 patients (mean age 59.9

Bio‐Inspired Micro‐Fin‐Assisted Multi‐Modal Vascular Intervention

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A magnetic guidewire with a micro‐fin–integrated tip is introduced for multimodal cardiovascular navigation. The micro‐fins exploit fluid drag to augment magnetic torque, enabling bifurcation traversal at 15 mT, tolerating 45° misalignment, bidirectional crawling, and buckle self‐correction.

Stress analysis in a layered aortic arch model under pulsatile blood flow

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2006
Background Many cardiovascular diseases, such as aortic dissection, frequently occur on the aortic arch and fluid-structure interactions play an important role in the cardiovascular system.
