Evolution of the wall shear stresses during the progressive enlargement of symmetric abdominal aortic aneurysms. [PDF]
, 2006 The changes in the evolution of the spatial and temporal distribution of the wall shear stresses (WSS) and gradients of wall shear stresses (GWSS) at different stages of the enlargement of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are important in understanding

Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms
Journal of British Surgery, 1978 Abstract The results of operation in 76 patients with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm are presented with an analysis of the cause of operative death. Overall mortality was 58 per cent and preoperative hypotension significantly increased mortality; deterioration while awaiting operation made a successful outcome particularly unlikely.

Anatomical and procedural features associated with aortic root rupture during balloon-expandable transcatheter aortic valve replacement [PDF]
, 2013 Aortic root rupture is a major concern with balloon-expandable transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). We sought to identify predictors of aortic root rupture during balloon-expandable TAVR by using multidetector computed ...

Traumatic Aortic Rupture [PDF]
Electronic Journal of General Medicine, 2015 Acute disruption of the thoracic aorta due to blunt chest trauma is a life-threatening injury. The majority of patients with an aortic tear die at the scene while approximately 15-20% of the victims reach the hospital alive. A 25 years old man was admitted to emergency service because of traffic accident. On the chest X ray; left pleural effusion, left

Differences in ultrasound-derived arterial wall stiffness parameters and noninvasive blood pressure between Friesian horses and Warmblood horses [PDF]
, 2020 Background: Aortic rupture is more common in Friesians compared to Warmbloods, which might be related to differences in arterial wall composition and, as such, arterial wall stiffness (AWS).
