Aortic Dilatation and Dissection in Turner Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2007
Background— The risk for aortic dissection is increased among relatively young women with Turner syndrome (TS). It is unknown whether aortic dilatation precedes acute aortic dissection in TS and, if so, what specific diameter predicts impending deterioration.

Relation of aortic root dilatation and age in Marfan's syndrome

open access: yes, 2007
Aims The main aim of this study was to describe the age at which pathological aortic root dilation occurs in patients with Marfan's syndrome (MFS). Methods and results A total of 160 patients with MFS attending a regional cardiac centre were reviewed ...

Non-linear finite element analyses of the aortic heart valve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Includes bibliographical references.Finite element models of the aortic heart valve have been successfully used in the past to gain insight into the mechanics of the valve and to aid in understanding of valve failure.

The Role of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Determination of Cardiovascular Anomalies in Children and Young Adults with Turner Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Research, 2019
Aim:Congenital cardiovascular (CV) anomalies and aortic dilatation are common in patients with Turner syndrome. The aim of this study was to compare echocardiography (ECHO) findings with CV anomalies and aortic dilatation identified using magnetic ...

Aortic Valve Stenosis Alters Expression of Regional Aortic Wall Shear Stress: New Insights From a 4‐Dimensional Flow Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study of 571 Subjects

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundWall shear stress (WSS) is a stimulus for vessel wall remodeling. Differences in ascending aorta (AAo) hemodynamics have been reported between bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and tricuspid aortic valve patients with aortic dilatation, but the ...

Pulmonary Autograft Dilatation and its Risk Factors After Classical Ross Procedure: a Retrospective Single Center Study

open access: yesКреативная хирургия и онкология, 2023
Introduction. Aortic valve replacement with pulmonary autograft (Ross procedure) demonstrated excellent immediate and long-term results. Dilation of the pulmonary autograft in the long-term period is the main reason for repeated surgery.

TAVI with the ACURATE neo transcatheter heart valve in special populations: A systematic review

open access: yesHellenic Journal of Cardiology, 2022
The ACURATE neo transcatheter aortic valve is a self-expanding device suitable for both transfemoral and transapical approach, but specific groups of patients are under-represented in clinical trials.

Disruption of Osteoprotegerin has complex effects on medial destruction and adventitial fibrosis during mouse abdominal aortic aneurysm formation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Aortic aneurysm refers to dilatation of the aorta due to loss of elasticity and degenerative weakening of its wall. A preventive role for osteoprotegerin (Opg) in the development of abdominal aortic aneurysm has been reported in the CaCl2-induced ...

Hemodynamic predictors of aortic dilatation in bicuspid aortic valve by velocity-encoded cardiovascular magnetic resonance

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2010
Background Congenital Bicuspid Aortic Valve (BAV) is a significant risk factor for serious complications including valve dysfunction, aortic dilatation, dissection, and sudden death.
