Post-stenotic aortic dilatation [PDF]

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2006
Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular heart disease affecting up to 4% of the elderly population. It can be associated with dilatation of the ascending aorta and subsequent dissection.

Aortic Dilatation in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valve [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac abnormality. BAV aortic dilatation is associated with an increased risk of adverse aortic events and represents a potentially lethal disease and hence a considerable medical burden.

Association of hemodynamic factors and progressive aortic dilatation following type A aortic dissection surgical repair [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2021
Type A aortic dissection (TAAD) involves the ascending aorta or the arch. Acute TAAD usually requires urgent replacement of the ascending aorta. However, a subset of these patients develops aortic rupture due to further dilatation of the residual ...

Hemodynamic factors of aortic dilatation after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for type-B aortic dissection [PDF]

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
ObjectiveWe aimed to investigate the hemodynamic factors associated with aortic dilatation following thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for type-B aortic dissection (TBAD).MethodsThis retrospective study enrolled patients who developed aortic ...

Aortic Dilatation in Children and Young People With ADPKD [PDF]

Kidney International Reports
Introduction: Aortic root dilatation is a reported cardiovascular sequela seen in children and young people (CYP) with chronic kidney disease (CKD) but has yet to be described in those with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).

Patients with Bicuspid Aortopathy and Aortic Dilatation. [PDF]

J Clin Med, 2022
(1) Background: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most frequent congenital cardiac disease. Alteration of ascending aorta diameter is a consequence of shear stress alterations due to haemodynamic abnormalities developed from inadequate valve cusp coaptation. (2) Objective: This narrative review aims to discuss anatomical, pathophysiological, genetical,

SMAD3 contributes to ascending aortic dilatation independent of transforming growth factor-beta in bicuspid and unicuspid aortic valve disease [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
We sought to determine whether there are differences in transforming growth factor-beta (TGFß) signaling in aneurysms associated with bicuspid (BAV) and unicuspid (UAV) aortic valves versus normal aortic valves.

The Presence of Ascending Aortic Dilatation in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Is Negatively Correlated with the Presence of Diabetes Mellitus and Does Not Impair Post-Procedural Outcomes [PDF]

Diagnostics, 2023
Both relevant aortic valve stenosis (AS) and aortic valve insufficiency significantly contribute to structural changes in the ascending aorta (AA) and thus to its dilatation.

Significant delayed aortic dilatation after tetralogy of Fallot repair: a case report [PDF]

Surgical Case Reports, 2020
Background Aortic dilatation may occur in some patients even after complete repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). The progression rate of the aortic diameter is so slow, and the incidence of aortic dissection is so low that it is suspected that frequent ...

Predictive machine learning models for ascending aortic dilatation in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid aortic valves undergoing cardiothoracic surgery: a prospective, single-centre and observational study [PDF]

BMJ Open
Objectives The objective of this study was to develop clinical classifiers aiming to identify prevalent ascending aortic dilatation in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and tricuspid aortic valve (TAV).Design and setting A prospective, single ...
