Fluid dynamics of aortic root dilation in Marfan syndrome [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 47, (2014) 3120-3128, 2014 Aortic root dilation and propensity to dissection are typical manifestations of the Marfan Syndrome (MS), a genetic defect leading to the degeneration of the elastic fibres. Dilation affects the structure of the flow and, in turn, altered flow may play a role in vessel dilation, generation of aneurysms, and dissection.

Postpartum aortic dissection [PDF]
Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2013 Postpartum aortic dissection is a rare but lethal event. Until now, only a limited number of cases have been reported, and a comprehensive literature review from 1988 to 2012 yielded 27 cases.

Ischemic stroke as a comorbidity in a patient with Stanford A aortic dissection: A case report [PDF]
Romanian Journal of Neurology, 2021 Background. Aortic dissection is one of the leading causes of death in cardiovascular disease. The clinical course of aortic dissection is often atypical and can mimic a variety of clinical manifestations.

A rare case of chronic aortic dissection and pulmonary thromboembolism [PDF]
Praxis Medica, 2022 Aortic dissection (AD) and pulmonary embolism (PE) are both serious and life-threatening conditions that rarely occur concomitantly. We report a case of a male patient with chronic aortic dissection, pulmonary embolism and decompensated cardiomyopathy ...

Noncoding RNA in the Regulation of Acute Aortic Dissection: From Profile to Mechanism
Cardiovascular Therapeutics, 2022 Aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition caused by a tear in the intimal layer of the aorta or bleeding within the aortic wall, resulting in the separation of the layers of the aortic wall.

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 ...

Patient-specific Finite Element Modeling of Aneurysmal dilatation after chronic type B aortic dissection [PDF]
Computational Biomechanics for Medicine, Springer International
Publishing, pp.15-38, 2022, 2023 Progressive aneurysmal dilatation is a well-recognized complication in patients with chronic type B aortic dissection (cTBAD), which may lead to a delayed rupture and create a life-threatening condition. However, our understanding of such aortic expansion in cTBAD remains weak.

Quantitative Hemodynamics in Aortic Dissection: Comparing in vitro MRI with FSI Simulation in a Compliant Model [PDF]
FIMH. Lecture Notes in Computer Science (2021), 2021 The analysis of quantitative hemodynamics and luminal pressure may add valuable information to aid treatment strategies and prognosis for aortic dissections. This work directly compared in vitro 4D-flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), catheter-based pressure measurements, and computational fluid dynamics that integrated fluid-structure interaction ...
