Traumatic aortic ruptures.

The Journal of cardiovascular surgery, 2005
Most patients with a traumatic aortic rupture (TAR) were involved in high velocity motor vehicle accidents. Initial management of these patients should be according to the guidelines of the advanced trauma life support group (ATLS). Patients with a suspected TAR are preferably managed by controlled hypotension.

Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm

2021
Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) are relatively common. Rupture of AAA can be one of the most dramatic acute surgical problems. It is associated with up to 80% mortality. A majority of patients die before reaching hospital. Timely diagnosis and expeditious operative treatment have the potential to reduce mortality rates; currently, patients able to ...

Anastomotic Rupture of Aortic Grafts

Angiology, 1979
Proximal suture line disruption is one of the severe complications of syn thetic vascular grafting for arteriosclerotic aortic disorders. The pathology of clinical and experimental cases revealed that a small bite of each stitch cut into the host aorta and became disrupted.

The Management of the Ruptured Aortic Aneurysm

Archives of Surgery, 1959
The lethal potential of arteriosclerotic aneurysms of the abdominal aorta has been clearly demonstrated. Because of this and the disabling symptomatology often related to the aneurysm, many surgical attacks have been devised. The ideal treatment consists of excision of the aneurysm and restoration of vascular continuity by the insertion of a graft ...

Aortic Ring Rupture in Stallions

Pathologia veterinaria, 1967
Eight cases of acquired rupture of the aortic ring in the right coronary sinus with dissection (cardioaortic fistula) into the interventricular septum and into the right ventricle have been described in stallions. It is postulated that the ruptures are due to increased blood pressure during breeding and the direction of a recoiling column of blood ...

RUPTURED ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM*

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1970
AbstractRupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm is a dire surgical emergency. The mortality rate in surgically treated cases, although declining due to better diagnosis and advances in vascular surgery, is high. However, the mortality in untreated cases is virtually 100 per cent. By contrast, the mortality rate in elective operations is very low.

Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms

The American Journal of Surgery, 1970
Abstract 1. 1. Fifty-seven patients were operated on at the Yale-New Haven Hospital for ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm with a 60 per cent mortality. 2. 2. Unfavorable prognostic preoperative findings were: a urea nitrogen level over 20 mg per cent; evidence of generalized arteriosclerosis; shock before or during operation. 3.
