Double aortic arch presenting with neonatal respiratory distress but not due to airway obstruction: Anatomic and embryologic explanation

open access: yesJournal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2018
Double aortic arch resulting from embryonic persistence of bilateral fourth branchial arches often leads to neonatal stridor due to tracheal compression. Two neonates presented with dyspnea without evidence of tracheal compression.

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

open access: yesCatheterization 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 ...

Evolution of the wall shear stresses during the progressive enlargement of symmetric abdominal aortic aneurysms. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The changes in the evolution of the spatial and temporal distribution of the wall shear stresses (WSS) and gradients of wall shear stresses (GWSS) at different stages of the enlargement of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are important in understanding

Totally Percutaneous Repair of an Aortic Arch Dissection: A Case Report

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2022
Although the endovascular repair of descending thoracic aorta diseases is an already consolidated procedure, this approach is not well-established for ascending aorta and arch pathologies.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Concomitant true and false lumen “parallel thoracic endovascular aortic repair” as an endovascular alternative to open arch/descending aortic reconstruction for chronic DeBakey type I dissection with aneurysmal degeneration

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
A 77-year-old woman presented with symptomatic thoracic aortic aneurysm within a dissected thoracoabdominal aorta distal to a previous Dacron ascending aortic replacement.

Ischaemic Optic Neuropathy After Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Incidence and Risk Factors

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Across 11 observational studies comprising 6 471 577 patients, the pooled incidence of ischaemic optic neuropathy after cardiac surgery was approximately 1.5 cases per 10 000 procedures. Coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and anaemia were associated with increased odds of ION, although these findings should be interpreted in the ...

Prenatal imaging phenotypes and outcomes of umbilical‐portal‐systemic venous shunts in singleton and twin pregnancies: A historical cohort study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
This retrospective cohort compared umbilical‐portal‐systemic venous shunts in singleton and twin pregnancies. Type III was the most common subtype in singletons, whereas Type II was the most common in twins. Fetal growth restriction was more frequent in twins, but primary structural anomaly rates were similar.

Surgery for infected aneurysm of the aortic arch [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2007
Infected aneurysm of the aortic arch is rare and can be fatal without surgery. We report our surgical experience with infected aneurysms of the aortic arch.We conducted a retrospective chart review.Between 1995 and 2006, 10 patients with infected aneurysms of the aortic arch were treated at our hospital. There were 8 men with a median age of 67.5 years

Sclerostin regulates bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) bioavailability through interactions with BMP complexes and fibrillin microfibrils

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Sclerostin (SOST) is a multifunctional extracellular modulator of BMP and Wnt signaling. SOST binds with high affinity to fibrillin‐1 and fibrillin‐2, localizing it to fibrillin microfibrils and regulating its extracellular bioavailability. Fibrillin‐bound SOST cannot engage BMP‐7 prodomain (PD) complexes, revealing a competitive mechanism that ...
