Ascending aortic replacement versus aortic root replacement in patients with type A aortic dissection involving the aortic root. [PDF]

Ther Adv Cardiovasc Dis
Background: Extensive surgical resection of the thoracic aorta in patients with type A aortic dissection (TAAD) is thought to reduce the risk of late aortic wall degeneration and the need for repeat aortic operations.

Growth of the aortic root in children and young adults with Marfan syndrome

Open Heart, 2022
Objectives The primary aim was to gain insight into the growth of the aortic root in children and young adults with Marfan syndrome (MFS). Furthermore, we aimed to identify a clinical profile of patients with MFS who require an aortic root replacement at

Changes in aortic root dimensions after ascending aortic repair with concomitant aortic valve replacement

Российский кардиологический журнал, 2023
The issue of ascending aortic repair with concomitant aortic valve replacement in pa-tients with ascending aortic aneurysm (AscAA) and aortic valve stenosis is still debatable.Aim.

Valve-Sparing Operation in Patients with Aortic Root Aneurysm

Український журнал серцево-судинної хірургії, 2020
Background. Aortic root aneurysm is rare but life-threatening disease which affects not only aortic wall, but aortic valve as well. Valve-sparing operation was developed by Tirone David and gave a chance to save native aortic valve in patients with ...

Biomechanical properties of the aortic root are distinct from those of the ascending aorta in both normal and aneurysmal statesCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open, 2023
Background: Although aneurysms of the ascending aorta and the aortic root are treated similarly in clinical guidelines, how biomechanical properties differ between these 2 segments of aorta is poorly defined.

The association between cardiac magnetic resonance-derived aortic stiffness parameters and aortic dilation in young adults with bicuspid aortic valve: With and without coarctation of aorta

American Heart Journal Plus, 2022
Background: Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with progressive aortic dilation. Studies in aortopathies have shown a correlation between increased aortic stiffness and aortic dilation.

A SOX17-PDGFB signaling axis regulates aortic root development

Nature Communications, 2022
Little is known about the developmental causes of aortic root defects. Here the authors show that the inactivation of Sox17 in aortic root endothelium results in aortic root defects affecting aortic valve and coronary ostium.

Aortic Root Dilatation in Children and Adolescents At Al-Hawary General Hospital, & National Benghazi Cardiac Center -Libya

مجلة المختار للعلوم, 2021
Isolated dilatation of the aortic root and/or ascending aorta is a rare but well-known cardiovascular manifestation, can be caused by a variety of congenital or acquired conditions; that lead to the weakening of the aortic wall.
