Risk Factors and Mouse Models of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Rupture

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture is an important cause of death in older adults. In clinical practice, the most established predictor of AAA rupture is maximum AAA diameter.

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 ...

Ascending aortic rupture after zone 2 endovascular repair: a multiparametric computational analysis.

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2019
A 74-year-old woman expired from ascending aortic rupture 3 months following branched zone 2 endovascular aortic repair. Multiparametric image-based computational evaluation of this case suggested that the stiffness mismatch between the endograft and the

Emerging pharmacological treatments to prevent abdominal aortic aneurysm growth and rupture [PDF]

, 2015
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a local expansion of the abdominal aorta wall caused by a complex multifactorial maladaptive vascular remodeling. Despite recent advances in the management of cardiovascular diseases, there currently is no established ...

Management of acute aortic dissection and thoracic aortic rupture

Journal of Intensive Care, 2018
BackgroundBoth acute aortic dissection and ruptured aortic aneurysm are leading causes of death in cardiovascular disease. These life-threatening conditions have recently been categorized as acute aortic syndrome.

Successful hybrid management of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm induced by type II and IIIB endoleaks after endovascular aortic repair

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm after endovascular abdominal aortic repair is a relatively rare condition. The management of this type of a rupture is challenging and controversial.

A novel combined fluid dynamic and strain analysis approach identified abdominal aortic aneurysm rupture

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2020
Clinical decision-making for surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms based on maximum aortic diameter presents limitations as rupture can occur below threshold for some aneurysms, whereas others are stable at large sizes.

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

Patients at Risk for Aortic Rupture Often Exposed to Fluoroquinolones during Hospitalization

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018
Several studies have indicated that fluoroquinolone use may be associated with an increased risk of aortic aneurysm or dissection (AAD). Because patients with AAD or Marfan syndrome are at increased risk for aortic rupture, we performed a retrospective ...

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 ...
