Abnormal wave reflections and left ventricular hypertrophy late after coarctation of the aorta repair [PDF]

, 2017
Patients with repaired coarctation of the aorta are thought to have increased afterload due to abnormalities in vessel structure and function. We have developed a novel cardiovascular magnetic resonance protocol that allows assessment of central ...

Real-time Assessment of Right and Left Ventricular Volumes and Function in Children Using High Spatiotemporal Resolution Spiral bSSFP with Compressed Sensing [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Real-time (RT) assessment of ventricular volumes and function enables data acquisition during free-breathing. However, in children the requirement for high spatiotemporal resolution requires accelerated imaging techniques.

Aortic Dilatation in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Valve

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac abnormality. BAV aortic dilatation is associated with an increased risk of adverse aortic events and represents a potentially lethal disease and hence a considerable medical burden.

Surgical management of the aortic arch in patients with inherited aortopathy

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Surgical management of the aortic root and ascending aorta has seen an evolution over the past 50 years. Despite the widely available guidelines for management of the aortic root and ascending aorta, including in those with connective tissue disease and ...

Implications of Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease and Aortic Stenosis/Insufficiency as Risk Factors for Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Bicuspid Aortic Valves (BAV) are associated with an increased incidence of thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA). TAA are a common aortic pathology characterized by enlargement of the aortic root and/or ascending aorta, and may become life threatening when ...

Inhibition of MAPK-Erk pathway in vivo attenuates aortic valve disease processes in Emilin1-deficient mouse model [PDF]

, 2017
Aortic valve disease (AVD) is a common condition with a progressive natural history, and presently, there are no pharmacologic treatment strategies. Elastic fiber fragmentation (EFF) is a hallmark of AVD, and increasing evidence implicates developmental ...

Evidence of Aortopathy in Mice with Haploinsufficiency of Notch1 in Nos3-Null Background

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2015
Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in humans. While the exact etiology is unknown, genetic factors play an important role.
