Fate of the Aortic Arch Following Surgery on Aortic Root and Ascending Aorta in Bicuspid Aortic Valve. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Recent guidelines support more aggressive surgery for aneurysms of the ascending aorta and root in patients with bicuspid aortic valve. However, the fate of the arch after surgery of the root and ascending aorta is unknown.

The deceptive aortic root. [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 1975
Coronal, horizontal, and sagittal sections through the mid-line are excellent ways of depicting the anatomical position of the aortic root and for studying its topographical relationship to the surrounding vascular structures. Minimal radiographic abnormalities or no abnormalities at all may be present with an enlarged ascending portion of the thoracic

Human tissue valves in aortic position: determinants of reoperation and valve regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
BACKGROUND: Human tissue valves for aortic valve replacement have a limited durability that is influenced by interrelated determinants. Hierarchical linear modeling was used to analyze the relation between these determinants

How to achieve an aortic root remodelling by performing an aortic root reimplantation [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2012
The aortic root remodelling procedure, introduced by Yacoub in the early 1980s, is the valve-sparing aortic root replacement procedure that better reproduces the anatomical and functional properties of the native aortic root. Long-term durability of the repair, in terms of freedom from recurrent aortic regurgitation, has been questioned and can ...

Patient-specific image-based computer simulation for theprediction of valve morphology and calcium displacement after TAVI with the Medtronic CoreValve and the Edwards SAPIEN valve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
AIMS: Our aim was to validate patient-specific software integrating baseline anatomy and biomechanical properties of both the aortic root and valve for the prediction of valve morphology and aortic leaflet calcium displacement after TAVI.

Fluid dynamics of aortic root dilation in Marfan syndrome

open access: yes, 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

Aortic root reconstruction with preservation of native aortic valve and sinuses in aortic root dilatation with aortic regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1999
We assessed the results of a modified technique for aortic root reconstruction including preservation of the native aortic valve and sinuses.A modified technique for reconstruction of the aortic root was devised in which the native aortic sinuses are preserved and remodeled, the diameter of the sinotubular junction is reduced, the ventriculoaortic ...

Responses to stimulation of coronary and carotid baroreceptors and the coronary chemoreflex at different ventricular distending pressures in anaesthetised dogs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Stimulation of left ventricular mechanoreceptors was believed not only to exert important effects on the circulation, but also to influence the responses to baroreceptor reflexes.
