Identification of aortic injury site using postmortem non–contrast computed tomography in road traffic accident

Radiology Case Reports, 2021
In high-speed motor vehicle accidents, it is necessary to investigate the manner of death. Postmortem computed tomography (PMCT) provides important information on the mechanism of death, but identification of the aortic injury is still challenging on non–

Biomechanical and biochemical properties of the thoracic aorta in warmblood horses, Friesian horses, and Friesians with aortic rupture [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Thoracic aortic rupture and aortopulmonary fistulation are rare conditions in horses. It mainly affects Friesian horses. Intrinsic differences in biomechanical properties of the aortic wall might predispose this breed.

TGFβ (transforming growth factor-β) blockade induces a human-like disease in a nondissecting mouse model of abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]

, 2017
Objective-Current experimental models of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) do not accurately reproduce the major features of human AAA. We hypothesized that blockade of TGF beta (transforming growth factor-beta) activity-a guardian of vascular integrity ...

Systematic review and meta-analysis of the growth and rupture rates of small abdominal aortic aneurysms: implications for surveillance intervals and their cost-effectiveness. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Small abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs; 3.0-5.4 cm in diameter) are usually asymptomatic and managed by regular ultrasound surveillance until they grow to a diameter threshold (commonly 5.5 cm) at which surgical intervention is considered ...

Atraumatic aortic rupture as a consequence of penetrating aortic atherosclerotic ulcer rupture [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2018
A woman in her 70s with rheumatoid arthritis presented to the emergency department with progressive dysnoea and sharp chest pain radiating to her back over the preceding day. No recent thoracic trauma was recollected. Examination demonstrated frailty, hypotension with a mean arterial pressure of 50, normal heart sounds and reduced air entry at the ...

Emergency department point-of-care ultrasound diagnosis of active bleeding into the intraluminal thrombus of an abdominal aortic aneurysm

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is an immediately life-threatening phenomenon with substantial mortality. Although most AAAs are asymptomatic, an impending AAA rupture can be heralded by nonspecific symptoms and imaging findings on CT and ...

Endovascular repair for acute traumatic transection of the descending thoracic aorta: experience of a single centre with a 12-years follow up [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Most blunt aortic injuries occur in the proximal proximal descending aorta causing acute transection of this vessel. Generally, surgical repair of the ruptured segment of aorta is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality and in
