Balloon Rupture during Pre-Dilation for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients with a Bicuspid Aortic Valve: Classification, Treatment Strategies, and Prevention

open access: yesCardiovascular Innovations and Applications, 2023
Balloon rupture during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a rare but serious complication. Here, we present two cases of balloon rupture in patients with severe aortic stenosis and type 0 bicuspid aortic valves.

Propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging of aortic dissection in mice : from individual elastic lamella to 3D analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In order to show the advantage and potential of propagation-based phase-contrast synchrotron imaging in vascular pathology research, we analyzed aortic medial ruptures in BAPN/AngII-infused mice, a mouse model for aortic dissection. Ascending and thoraco-
