MYH11 variants in thoracic aortic aneurysm pathophysiology: From bench to bedside
European Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 56, Issue 4, April 2026.Thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD) are often asymptomatic until rupture or dissection, which are associated with high mortality. Around 20% of cases of TAAD show familial segregation; some of these are linked to pathogenic variants in vascular smooth muscle cell contractile genes, like MYH11.

CJC Pediatric &Congenital Heart Disease, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 20-22, February 2026.Although an echocardiogram is usually sufficient to determine the etiology of left ventricular and aortic dilation in pediatric patients, cross‐sectional imaging may complement echocardiography when the diagnosis is unclear. We present the case of a 2‐year‐old child with left atrial, left ventricular, and aortic dilation caused by an intralobar ...

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 The bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) generates wall shear stress (WSS) abnormalities in the ascending aorta (AA) that may be responsible for the high prevalence of aortopathy in BAV patients.

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 411-429, January 2026.Abstract Purpose This study investigated the effect of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) morphology and ascending aortic curvature (AAAc) bending angles on aortic hemodynamics, focusing on transvalvular jets and secondary helical flows that contribute to systolic hemodynamic stress linked to aortic complications.

Risk Stratification in Bicuspid Aortic Valve Aortopathy: Emerging Evidence and Future Perspectives [PDF]
, 2019 The current management of aortic dilatation associated with congenital bicuspid aortic valve (bicuspid aortic valve aortopathy) is based on dimensional parameters (diameter of the aneurysm, growth of the diameter over time) and few other criteria.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Patients with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) often have proximal aortic dilatation and systemic vascular dysfunction. We hypothesized that BAV patients would have different carotid artery structural and functional characteristics compared to tricuspid ...

Case Reports in Anesthesiology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a rare, nonatherosclerotic vascular disease that predisposes patients to arterial stenosis, dissection, and stroke, often with delayed diagnosis due to nonspecific symptoms. We present a 30‐year‐old female with a history of migraines and recent whiplash injury who developed acute ischemic stroke from right internal ...
