Immune Modulation as a Treatment for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In the United States, over 200,000 new patients are diagnosed with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) each year. Consequently, over 40,000 highly morbid aortic reconstructions are performed each year to prevent aneurysm rupture, a catastrophic event ...

Traumatic Aortic Rupture [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic 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

From Clinic to Computation: Multiscale Bioengineering Strategies for Durable Biological Aortic Valve Replacements

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioprosthetic aortic valves have revolutionized the treatment of aortic stenosis, but their durability is limited by structural valve deterioration (SVD). This review focuses on the pericardial tissue at the heart of these valves, examining how its mechanical properties and calcification drive fatigue and failure.

Novel biaxial tensile test for studying aortic failure phenomena at a microscopic level

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2013
Background An aortic aneurysm is a local dilation of the aorta, which tends to expand and often results in a fatal rupture. Although larger aneurysms have a greater risk of rupture, some small aneurysms also rupture. Since the mechanism of aortic rupture

ADAMTS4-specific MR probe to assess aortic aneurysms in vivo using synthetic peptide libraries

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
New biomarkers are required to improve the assessment of aortic wall integrity and risk of rupture. Here the authors report the development of an imaging probe for ADAMTS4, which they test in an abdominal aortic aneurysm mouse model and show in vivo ...

Differences in ultrasound-derived arterial wall stiffness parameters and noninvasive blood pressure between Friesian horses and Warmblood horses [PDF]

open access: yes, 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).

Ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm

open access: yesJournal of British Surgery, 1986
Abstract Between 1974 and 1984, 174 patients with ruptured abdominal aneurysms have been treated by three vascular surgeons. The 11-year period showed a dramatic increase in the number of patients presenting with ruptured aneurysms. The overall operative survival, including patients who died before a graft could be inserted, was 67 per ...

Surgical Repair of a Transannular Rupture During Transfemoral Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports, 2021
Annular rupture is a rare but life-threatening complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Mortality rates are high if immediate intervention, most often necessitating surgical repair, is not performed.
