AORTA, 2020 AbstractWe report a case of a 45-year-old male suffering from arterial hypertension who was found to have an aortic coarctation with marked hypertrophic compensatory collateral arterial circulation. Although coarctation is relatively rare, this must be included in the differential diagnosis in patients with arterial hypertension with a positive ...

Giant descending aortic pseudo-aneurysm in an adult man with uncorrected aortic coarctation
The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2021 Background Aortic coarctation (CoAo) accounts for 6 to 8% of all congenital heart diseases and occurs two to five times more often in males. The uncorrected aortic coarctation is complicated by hypertension, ascending and descending aortic aneurysms ...

Mathematical modeling of shear-activated targeted nanoparticle drug delivery for the treatment of aortic diseases [PDF]
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology (2021), 2021 The human aorta is a high-risk area for vascular diseases, which are commonly restored by thoracic endovascular aortic repair. In this paper, we report a promising shear-activated targeted nanoparticle drug delivery strategy to assist in the treatment of coarctation of the aorta and aortic aneurysm.

Hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during thoracic endovascular aortic repair [PDF]
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology (2022), 2021 Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has become the standard treatment of a variety of aortic pathologies. The objective of this study is to evaluate the hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during TEVAR. Three idealized representative diseased aortas of aortic aneurysm, coarctation of the aorta, and aortic dissection were ...

In silico modeling for personalized stenting in aortic coarctation [PDF]
Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics, 2022,
16: 2056-2073, 2022 Stent intervention is a recommended therapy to reduce the pressure gradient and restore blood flow for patients with coarctation of the aorta (CoA). In this work, we developed a framework for personalized stent intervention in CoA using in silico modeling, combining computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and image-based prediction of the geometry of the ...

Multi-task learning for joint weakly-supervised segmentation and aortic arch anomaly classification in fetal cardiac MRI [PDF]
Machine.Learning.for.Biomedical.Imaging. 2 (2023), 2023 Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is a group of cardiac malformations present already during fetal life, representing the prevailing category of birth defects globally. Our aim in this study is to aid 3D fetal vessel topology visualisation in aortic arch anomalies, a group which encompasses a range of conditions with significant anatomical heterogeneity ...

Two stage surgical repair of type II acute aortic dissection and aortic coarctation in a 12-year-old child [PDF]
Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2017 Introduction. Combination of acute aortic dissection associated with aortic coarctation in pediatric population is extremely rare. We are presenting a 12-year-old patient with these two conditions who was successfully treated with two-stage surgery. Case
