Genetics of Thoracic and Abdominal Aortic Diseases. [PDF]
Dissections or ruptures of aortic aneurysms remain a leading cause of death in the developed world, with the majority of deaths being preventable if individuals at risk are identified and properly managed. Genetic variants predispose individuals to these

Relationship between fluoroquinolones and the risk of aortic diseases: a meta-analysis of observational studies. [PDF]
Background Our aim was to determine the relationship between the use of fluoroquinolones and the risk of aortic diseases. Methods PubMed, EMBASE and the Web of Science were searched from inception to July 6, 2019, to identify observational studies that ...

Mathematical modeling of shear-activated targeted nanoparticle drug delivery for the treatment of aortic diseases [PDF]
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.

Surgical management of aortic regurgitation secondary to Behcet's disease
BackgroundAortic regurgitation (AR) related to Behcet's disease (BD) is rare, but usually fatal. Perivalvular leakage (PVL) is high if AR related to BD treated with regular AVR.

Aortic complications in pregnancy: the less remembered chapter—a narrative review
Pregnancy increases the risk of common vascular events and also the rarer events like aortic dissection (AD)/aortic rupture and this is even more pronounced in patients with predisposing aortopathies.

Hemodynamic effects of stent-graft introducer sheath during thoracic endovascular aortic repair [PDF]
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 ...

Transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation in patients with aortic diseases.
OBJECTIVES Patients scheduled for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) treatment frequently present with concomitant aortic diseases, in which case they are usually considered to be at high interventional risk and, in particular, unable to ...
