Aortic arch pathologies – incidence and natural history [PDF]

Gefässchirurgie, 2016
Endovascular interventions have made significant progress and are moving towards treating diseases of the aortic arch. Aortic arch pathologies incur substantial morbidity as well as short and long-term mortality but the progression is not well understood.

Tracheal Compression by Aberrant Innominate Artery: A Case Report [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
The brachiocephalic trunk arises from the convexity of the aortic arch, posterior to the manubrium sterni. In rare cases, the origin of the brachiocephalic trunk is shifted to the left of the midline, crosses the trachea through an oblique course, and ...

Sequential ruptures of penetrating atherosclerotic ulcers of ascending aorta, aortic arch and descending thoracic aorta

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background Penetrating ulcers of aorta, aortic dissections and intramural hematomas all come under acute aortic syndromes and have important similarities and differences.

Rare double orifice mitral valve malformation associated with bicuspid aortic valve in Turner syndrome: diagnosed by a series of novel three-dimensional echocardiography and literature review

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Patients with both double orifice mitral valve (DOMV) and bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) malformation are rare. Although DOMV or BAV can be detected in some genetic syndromes, it has not been reported to simultaneously appear in Turner syndrome ...

Impact of shear stress and atherosclerosis on entrance-tear formation in patients with acute aortic syndromes

Heart and Vessels, 2013
Weak aortic media layers can lead to intimal tear (IT) in patients with overt aortic dissection (AD), and aortic plaque rupture is thought to progress to penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU) with intramural hematoma (IMH).

Hybrid Treatment of Complex Aortic Arch Anomaly with Saccular Aneurysm [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2019
Aortic arch anomalies are not clinically important unless they cause compression symptoms due to aneurysmatic dilatation. Aortic anomalies need to be treated when they cause complex thoracic aortic diseases, and the treatment approach has evolved over ...

An optimal control approach to determine resistance-type boundary conditions from in-vivo data for cardiovascular simulations [PDF]

, 2021
The choice of appropriate boundary conditions is a fundamental step in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of the cardiovascular system. Boundary conditions, in fact, highly affect the computed pressure and flow rates, and consequently haemodynamic indicators such as wall shear stress, which are of clinical interest.

Diffuse aneurysmal disease (chronic aortic dissection, Marfan, and mega aorta syndromes) and multiple aneurysm. Treatment by subtotal and total aortic replacement emphasizing the elephant trunk operation.

Annals of Surgery, 1990
The life expectancy of patients with aortic aneurysm is significantly prolonged by graft replacement therapy. Regardless, a significant predictor of late death is complications of either residual aortic aneurysmal disease or the development of additional
